I've tried numerous ways to filter using a full text query, but to no avail.  
Here's what I've attempted:

```
{
    "_source": "_id",
    "query": {
        "filtered": {
            "multi_match": {
                "query": "test search query",
                "fields": ["title"]
            },
            "filter": {
                "term": {"user_id": "1"}
            }
        }
    }
}
```
