Application launcher with an empty list

SUMMARY

The Application Launcher refuses to search the applications sometimes.
This reproduces well when searching by the same single letter twice.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open the Application Launcher (using Meta key or mouse)
2. Type 'k'. (A list of applications appears (Konsole, Kate, KWalletManager, etc))
3. Close the Application Launcher and open it again
4. Type 'k'

OBSERVED RESULT

No applications shown.

EXPECTED RESULT

The same list of applications should appear (Konsole, Kate, KWalletManager, etc)
