Track lighting on GFCI?

Matt

A question for the electricians on this BB:

I have a track light that will not work with a GFCI enabled circuit. No
issues if I take the light bulbs out of the sockets. If I replace either
bulb or both bulbs the circuit breaker breaks as soon as the switch is
thrown. If I
place the track light onto a non-GFCI circuit all is fine. Of course, the
GFCI circuit is now fine as well.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Matt
