You have to set both `selectedRow` and `selectedColumn` to `None`.

> At the moment, if you need to clear selection, just set both the selectedColumn and selectedRow properties to None or null. Currently, the selection data is intended to be read only. It looks like by clearing it, we might be interfering with some internal book keeping of selection data. We will look into it, but for now all you need to do is set selectedColumn and selectedRow to null, and the Table will clear the selected data for you.
