Alert Me: Someone changes an item that appears in the following view

When using the Alert Me feature on a list or a document library, we can see that the option Someone changes an item that appears in the following view in the Send Alerts for These Changes section is sometimes available.


In fact, this option appears only if there is at least one view containing a filter. Only the views containing a filter will appear in the dropdown list.

My view shows up in this list, but doesn't ever fire an alert. I've gotten it to work on some lists and not others. Any ideas why?
