The cause of the problem is that [Other metadata] has a different meaning when searching (i.e. [Other metadata] [includes all of the words]) and when filtering (i.e. [then apply advanced filter] [other metadata] [contains the string]).

In the first case, [other metadata] includes the parent folder name (or relative or absolute path when setting the hidden preferences), but in the latter case, it does not (it only includes some "uncategorized" metadata). This is not coherent, thus in version 7.5.4 this will change and filtering [other metadata] will also include the the parent folder name (or path).
