HS exposed Views Filter not respecting Views Relationship

Hope this is listed under the right component. After searching around here, couldn't find similar issues - apologies if this has cropped up elsewhere.

As you can see (image attached), I have a "Tickets" View (Views 6.x-2.12) with a few exposed filters (I've hidden 2 other standard, non-HS exposed filters for the screenshot).

Each ticket shown is a game-type node. Each game node has a Node Reference to its associated seating-type node. For example:

[node:seats-a]
- Available Seats: 5
- Cost: $100 each
- Taxonomy [vid:1]: [tid:80:Cleveland Cavaliers]

[node:game-1]
- Date: 2/6/2011
- Taxonomy [vid:1]: [tid:90:Portland Trail Blazers]
- Seats: [node-reference:seats-a]

[view:tickets]
- Core Filter: [node-type:game]
- Core Relationship: [node-reference:seats]
- Taxonomy Filter 1: [game]->[terms:HS Widget] (No Relationship)
- Taxonomy Filter 2: [seats]->[terms:HS Widget] (Seats Relationship)

• Both games and seats share the same taxonomy.
• The view is node:game based, but uses the node-reference:seats relationship to match up home and away information.
• The "Home" HS widget is set to use the "Seats" relationship.
• Finally, I've configured each of the HS exposed filters to hide terms w/o nodes.

The "Opponent" HS widget works fabulously. It hides terms (teams) that no game nodes exist for, and only shows terms from any tagged game nodes. The counts also accurately reflect the game-type nodes with each term.

However, the "Home" HS widget fails to recognize the relationship assigned to its views filter. Instead, it shows the same taxonomy results as the game node HS select, as if there was no relationship and both filters were using the same information.

As you can see, there should be at least (3) nodes listed for "Cleveland Cavaliers." In fact, the view goes on for several pages for Cleveland Cavaliers (as the Home team). The (1) in the screenshot here is actually reflecting the number of game nodes (or "Opponents") with the term, Cleveland Cavaliers.

In comparison, there is in fact only (1) game node that has "Portland Trail Blazers" as the Opponent team, and the second HS filter—"Opponent" (not using a relationship)—displays this count accurately.

It is a different story when I actually Apply the filter for the exposed "Home" HS filter. Views at least respects the [seats] relationship, and will only return tickets where the home team explicitly matches the selected HS widget term. Regardless, the HS selection is limited to only the false list of terms HS is pulling incorrectly from the "Opponent" terms (game-type terms).

I very much need to get the "Home" HS select properly respecting my [seats] Views Relationship. Meaning, the "Home" HS should only show and count terms from [seats] nodes, and the "Opponent" HS should only show/count terms from [game] nodes (working fine).

How can I configure for this? Or patch for it? Thanks.
