OK, I got it, - the below is the spec for building a new Timesheet with no
activity selected/set up for a new Timesheet:

I tested that and it worked either with defining it directly in the spec or
creating just a separate factory with no activity task.
Now I see the difference with my another spec where I just set to nil all
the created activities in the timesheet factory:
describe "when no activities present" do
before do
@timesheet.activities.each { |activity| activity.task = nil }
end
it { should_not be_valid }
end
Thank you all for the time and help.
