nice one elliot! this leads me to the right direction. but i think i found a bug?! i am using ACF 5.0.3.
this is my function:

/* auto populate acf field with comment IDs */
function my_acf_load_field( $field ){

	$assignedpost = get_field('produktblog');
	$comments = get_comments(array(
		'status' => 'approve',
		'post_id' => $assignedpost->ID
	));
	if( is_array($comments) )
	{
		foreach( $comments as $key=>$comment )
		{
			$field['choices'][ $key ] = $comment->comment_content;
			$field['default_value'][ $key ] = $comment->comment_ID;
		}
	}
    return $field;
}
 
// v4.0.0 and above
add_filter('acf/load_field/name=kommentare', 'my_acf_load_field');

and this is the print_r from $field:

Array
(
    [ID] => 150
    [key] => field_53e327ee805e6
    [label] => Kommentare
    [name] => kommentare
    [prefix] => 
    [type] => select
    [value] => 
    [menu_order] => 0
    [instructions] => 
    [required] => 0
    [id] => 
    [class] => 
    [conditional_logic] => 0
    [parent] => 6
    [_name] => kommentare
    [_input] => 
    [_valid] => 1
    [choices] => Array
        (
            [0] => kommentar3
            [1] => kommentar2
            [2] => kommentar1
        )

    [default_value] => Array
        (
            [0] => 7
            [1] => 6
            [2] => 5
        )

    [allow_null] => 1
    [multiple] => 1
    [ui] => 0
    [ajax] => 0
    [placeholder] => 
    [disabled] => 0
    [readonly] => 0
)

the select field accepts the choices but not the values:

so as you can see, the value is still 0,1,2. but it has to be 7,6,5
