I already found a similar issue report but it seems to be not solved completely:

http://doctrine-project.org/jira/browse/DDC-1382

I did something like this (mock): (Metadata cache is OFF)
$someCompositeEntity = new SomeCompositeEntity;
$someCompositeEntity->setUser($userEntity);
$someCompositeEntity->setAnotherRelation($anotherRelationEntity);

// Note: $userEntity & $anotherRelationEntity are managed by UOW.

$uow = $em->getUnitOfWork();
var_dump($uow->getEntityState($someCompositeEntity));

-- EXPECTED: --
bool(false)

-- ACTUAL RESULT: --

PHP Error [4096]

Object of class Application\Model\Db\Entity\User could not be converted to string (/Users/keksnicoh/lokalhorst/FinQ/vendor/doctrine/orm/lib/Doctrine/ORM/UnitOfWork.php:2754)

#0 unknown(0): CWebApplication->handleError()
#1 /Users/keksnicoh/lokalhorst/FinQ/vendor/doctrine/orm/lib/Doctrine/ORM/UnitOfWork.php(2754): implode()
#2 /Users/keksnicoh/lokalhorst/FinQ/vendor/doctrine/orm/lib/Doctrine/ORM/UnitOfWork.php(1389): Doctrine\ORM\UnitOfWork->tryGetById()
#3 /Users/keksnicoh/lokalhorst/FinQ/Application/Model/Db/Model/AnswerCommentRating.php(42): Doctrine\ORM\UnitOfWork->getEntityState()

As you see the metadatainfo tries to convert the composite objects to strings, instead of getting the identifiers from the objects.
