I think if you are running Dolphin, have opened /home/username/Pictures and
searching from there, you will not get any hits:

    Dolphin thinks that baloo has indexed the folder so it queries baloo
    Baloo hasn't indexed Pictures as it is a symlink
    You get no hits

Whereas if you are running Dolphin, have opened  /archive/username/Pictures and
searching from there, you will get "something" (*):

    Dolphin thinks that baloo has not indexed the folder so it does "its own"
search
    You'll get something depending on Dolphin's "filenamesearch" logic

(The "asterisk" is there to cover the case that you've configured baloo to
index /archive/username/Pictures, if you've done that dolphin will query baloo
and baloo should return results.)

Some guesswork is natuarally involved.... 8-]
