Bucket no longer showing result by default when assigning a default bucket view

Question

As soon as a set a default bucket view (for instance the table view) the bucket won't show any results or facets anymore when you open it. You have to press the search button explicitly. This is a unwanted extra click I would like to avoid.

Why is this and is there a way to make it show the results when you open the bucket?

When I open a bucket with a default view I see this (note that now you have to press the search button for results to show up):

Without a default view I see this (note how the result appear immediately):

Iam using sitecore 9.2.

Alright, I think this is a bug in Sitecore and I will suggest you to reach to support team for this, but I found a workaround for this. You need to update the ItemBucket.utils.js file for this -

\sitecore\shell\Applications\Buckets\Scripts\ItemBucket.utils.js

In this file, you need to update few lines in establishViews function, a hack is to trigger the click event based on the current view by adding a line- $j("#" + window.CurrentView).trigger("click");-

 if (window.CurrentView && window.CurrentView !== "list") {
            $j("#views a").removeClass("active");
            $j("#" + window.CurrentView).trigger("click");
            $j("#" + window.CurrentView).addClass("active");
        }

in additional, there one more line need to update for showing the active view after the click in the same function from $j("#" + filter.ID).addClass("active"); to $j("#" + filter.ViewName).addClass("active");-

$j.each(views, function (index, filter) {
            $j("#" + filter.ViewName).click(function () {
                CurrentView = filter.ViewName;
                a.find(".sb_up").click();
                pageNumber = 0;

                $j.each(defaultViews, function (subIndex, subfilter) {
                    $j("." + subfilter).removeClass("active");
                });
                $j("#" + filter.ViewName).addClass("active");
                $j('.content').css({ 'opacity': 1.0 });
                $j("#ajaxBusy").css({ display: "block" });
                var n = buildQuery();
                runQuery(n, pageNumber, h, OnSearchRunFail);
                runFacet(n, pageNumber, meme, OnSearchRunFail);

                $j(".navAlpha").html("");
                $j(".slide-out-div").html("").prepend(LoadGifText);
                $j("#ajaxBusyFacet").css({
                    display: "none",
                    margin: "0px auto",
                    width: "44px"
                });
            });
        });
