Filter Search Function Not Working

When I search for a value (Elevation) in the Filters, it cannot find it.

 However, the value (Elevation) is clearly there in the list.

This also affects the query. How can we fix this? What is the cause of the problem?

Hi @SamuelAB 
All the values in English? 
Try to put the Descriptor name column at the table visual, to copy a value  and then from  Pq use a "replace value" , paste the copied value to the "value to find"  and manually type Elevation as a "replace with". 
+ Trim and clean this column from PQ
And then test a filter again.
