Similar or almost identical search querys in other files give the right response but now something isn't working. I stripped it down to the smallest query but I still have the same problem.

```auto
var searchResponse = await EsClient().SearchAsync<GroupDto>(s => s
        .Query(q => q
           .MatchAll()
       ));

```

With this search i get a successful call (valid NEST response, no errors) and every hit has the right id but the source values are 0 or null, so I can't get any actual data more than id and the count value.

Someone have a clue what could be wrong?
