This is the same as Bug 467208?

There is a "fallback" within dolphin to do "there and then" searches when you
don't have baloo running or you have moved to a folder that baloo has not
indexed and are searching from there. It seems though that that search does not
hunt down through hidden folders as you might expect if you have told dolphin
to show hidden files.

Probably worth fixing.

Flaggings as confirmed on the basis of
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=467208#c4 but maybe this will end up as a
duplicate...

The fact that dolphin falls back to its own searching is a bit of a hidden (and
sometimes confusing) feature :-/
