I have two sorting chests that are separated by a few other sorting chests. The first one (my tools & food chest) has Foodstuffs, Tools, and Combat checked as filters, it also has a custom filter of "Bucket, Torch, Lava bucket," it is on NORMAL- HIGH priority and set to whitelist. The second one has Miscellaneous checked and is on LOW priority. When I put in a bucket of lava into the system, it gets sorted into the second chest and not the first chest unless I put it specifically in the first chest. What am I doing wrong? the lava bucket should go into the first chest not the second!

I'm also having the exact same problem with sorting sticks between a chest with a custom filter including "stick" and a chest set to materials.

I have noticed some weirdness too, I will try to find the source of this issue!

Seems to be fixed!
