TPS61073: soft-start current limit bypass or alternate part

My customer is using the TPS61073 to generate a 5V out from a 3.3V input.  They have some resistive loads on the output that are pulling over 140mA during startup, causing the part to never achieve regulation as the part get stuck in the soft-start switch current limit and only 3.2V out.  If the load is removed the device starts up just fine and then the load can be applied no issue, but they don't have the option to do this in their current system.

Is there a way to bypass the startup soft-start current or increase the amount (even by a small amount)?

OR

Is there a pin for pin alternate device with a higher soft-start current?

Thanks,

Dan
