Describe the bug

A clear and concise description of what the bug is.
Search only works the first time. Subsequent searches do not work. Nothing happens. It's totally dead.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
Click on Contacts within Nextcloud top menu to go to Contacts app. Immediately click on Search Icon and enter contact to search for. It works and returns the results of the search as expected. Now, search for a different Contact and nothing happens.

Expected behavior
Expect to see updated results for each new search.

Actual behavior
Nothing happens. Just dead after first search. As a workaround I have to reload the contacts app from the nextcloud menu to do a new search. This is cumbersome as it takes a few seconds to load all the contacts. Once the contacts are initially loaded I should be able to search for them, manipulate them, etc without the need to constantly reload them.

Screenshots
If applicable, add screenshots to help explain your problem.
