Describe the issue

When I search for "Fluch"(1) I got this result:

But the new added item (3) is missing in the search result (2).
When I do it by using ODBC directly on table books I got this:

The best solution will be to filter within Register "Library" as you do when search for a author and then click on it.
It would be also good to have it on Series ( and Authors)
This Bug is related to #2719 where the performance -problem is solved.
The app shows me 5 results but also there book (2) is missing!

Steps to reproduce the issue

Audiobookshelf version

2.8.1

How are you running audiobookshelf?

Docker

The search is not just searching on the title. If those items have "fluch" anywhere in the subtitle, description, etc. then it will be shown in there.

The dropdown shows 3 results for each category. If you press enter it will show more.

Ok, but this works only within WebApp and unfortunately not in the mobile App.
Now I see more. But when I type "Kommissar" and press "ENTER" within the WebApp I got this:

A direkt ODBC-Call on books returns me 63 matching Books:

From my point of view it would be the best way to show all these 63 books within the register "Library" as you do when searching for a Author like "Arthur Conan Doyle" which return 52 books:

perhaps you can open then FIlter-Elemnt for freetext:

and for matched within Series you can perhaps add a filter-element within register "Series"?
