A solution without timeout can be found here: https://github.com/angular-ui/ui-grid/issues/2267 and here: Pre-Select rows on load with angular-ui-grid

$scope.gridOptions = {
...
                onRegisterApi : function (gridApi) {
                    $scope.gridApi = gridApi;
                    $scope.gridApi.grid.modifyRows($scope.gridOptions.data);
                    $scope.gridApi.selection.selectRow($scope.gridOptions.data[0]);
                }
            };

Apparently modifyRows requires v3.0.0-rc.22+
