Using 'Is Not Blank' does not properly filter out blanks in Matrix visual

Hi, I am trying to exclude blank rows from a matrix visual.  Using the Advanced Filtering 'Is Not Blank' option is not working properly.  How can I remove these blank rows from this matrix? 

 

You'll see the filters applied on the right (green) and the blank rows circled in red that are still showing up when they shouldn't be.
