Search in library not working for some libraries (and for others it does work)

Dear SharePoint/Search adepts
As you all know, in SharePoint 2013 you have the
possibility to search from a library.
Today I encountered some strange behavior…
We've deployed a SharePoint 2013 environment, 4 SharePoint servers (2wfe +2app),
and an additional server dedicated to Search and all of its components. This with
a SQL cluster as a backend
everything works just perfect...
Except certain search boxes (above a library) do not
return results when trying to search within the library.
If we take the same query and execute it on the site
itself, it returns the desired result set.
The odd thing is, that it doesn’t affect all the libraries, in some it works,
in some it doesn’t.
no error messages or something like it, search just playing dumb
I’ve checked several times, all the desired documents
are crawled. (And can be found in the site search)
I’m quite confident and experienced with search, but
this blows my mind and I do not know where to look anymore ...
Does anyone have an idea?
Thx for helping out!
Daan
