DISTINCTCOUNT in total column of matrix is not dynamic

Hi,

 

I am obtaining the distinctcount of a table column and displaying it in a matrix. 

 

Example Table:

My Measure:

Test_DistinctN = DISTINCTCOUNT('Table'[Test])

My Matrix:

I would like the total to update when I am selecting the columns in order to slice the dataset.

i.e. if and b are selected total = 2 

 

Note - It does work if I slice using a separate table to select the values. Just not the matrix itself.
