Thanks Ivan. Yes, it was the post filter which was ignored. We use filtered query only when the user sends a query string, otherwise (when only exact filters for specific columns are specified) we use the post filter. It seems strange to me to use the FilteredQuery when the query string is empty, but perhaps that would be the most straight forward way of doing this.
