Bug Description

When attempting to search for an existing filename, I cannot see it in the search results. I have several file names with the following naming convention:

functional_specification.txt
contacts_functional_specification.txt
functional_specification.odt

When doing a search within Dash for terms like "func" or "spec", I do not get any hits. I've tried using multiple lenses with the same results. Please refer to the screenshot.

I just updated it this morning, and did a couple of test. I still see the same behaviour. The only exception is the "file not found" type message in the search results. Please see attachment.
