Answer 1

Are you changing the actual collection instance assigned to the CollectionViewSource.Source, or are you just firing PropertyChanged on the property that it's bound to?

If the Source property is set, the filter should be recalled for every item in the new source collection, so I'm thinking something else is happening. Have you tried setting Source manually instead of using a binding and seeing if you still get your behavior?

Edit:

Are you using CollectionViewSource.View.Filter property, or the CollectionViewSource.Filter event? The CollectionView will get blown away when you set a new Source, so if you had a Filter set on the CollectionView it won't be there anymore.
