The key is question is/was: filteredResultsString

I moved things around to instead use:

[self addObserver:self forKeyPath:@"itemsController.arrangedObjects.count"
options:NSKeyValueObservingOptionNew context:NULL];

and

- (void)observeValueForKeyPath:(NSString *)keyPath ofObject:(id)object
change:(NSDictionary *)change context:(void *)context
{
    // set the NSTextField
}

This seems to work fine.
