I have had alot of trouble trying to figure out a solution to this problem and the solution I ended up using isn't "nice" in my opinion, but it works.

In my application i ended up adding a fragments position in the navigation drawer, when i added the fragment to the backstack. This way i could call setItemChecked with the position in my onBackStackChanged(). So basicly what i did was this:

@Override
public void onBackStackChanged() {
    FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
    String name = fm.getBackStackEntryAt(fm.getBackStackEntryCount()-1).getName();
    mDrawerList.setItemChecked(Integer.parseInt(name),true);
}

public class DrawerItemClickListener implements android.widget.AdapterView.OnItemClickListener {
    @Override
    public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view, int position, long id) {
        selectItem(position);
    }
}

private void selectItem(int position) {
    Fragment fragment;

    switch (position) {
        case 0: // Home
            fragment = new ContentFragment();
            break;
        case 1: // Another
           fragment = new AnotherFragment();
            break;
        default: // Logout
        {
            finish();

            Intent intent = new Intent(this, StartupActivity.class);
            startActivity(intent);

            return;
        }
    }

    FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
    fragmentManager.beginTransaction()
            .replace(R.id.content_frame, fragment)
            .addToBackStack(Integer.toString(position))
            .commit();

    mDrawerList.setItemChecked(position, true);
    setTitle(mNavigationItems[position]);
    mDrawerLayout.closeDrawer(mDrawerList);
}
