This bug has been fixed in Release 2007a (R2007a). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:
This feature will function correctly when the 'UseNative SystemDialogs' property is set to 'true'. To work around this issue, execute the following statement which activates the use of native system dialogs with MATLAB.
setappdata(0, 'UseNativeSystemDialogs', true);
