Python crashes running stand alone script, composite locator, AGS 10.1 SP1 desktop

I have a Python script with a composite locator that works when run from the Python window in ArcMap, but crashes when run standalone. I am running ArcGIS 10.1 SP1 (Build 3143) Desktop Standard(ArcEditor) on a Windows 7 64 bit. Also I can run the script in the Python window in ArcMap or standalone if I change the locator to a individual locator. The locators are from StreetMap Premium 2012 R3 - USA_2012R3_NT_AddressPoint' and 'USA_2012R3_NT_Composite' .

The message Windows message from the crash is:

Description:
Stopped working

Problem signature:

It appears that the problem is with running a composite locator as a standalone Python script.

Thanks,
