dataset.search() (elastic) cannot reliably retrieve search results

I am trying to use elastic search to retrieve the indices of items in the dataset in their precise order, given shuffled training indices.

The problem I have is that I cannot retrieve reliable results with my data on my first search. I have to run the search **twice** to get the right answer.

I am indexing data that looks like the following from the HF SQuAD 2.0 data set:

```
['57318658e6313a140071d02b',
 '56f7165e3d8e2e1400e3733a',
 '570e2f6e0b85d914000d7d21',
 '5727e58aff5b5019007d97d0',
 '5a3b5a503ff257001ab8441f',
 '57262fab271a42140099d725']
```



To reproduce the issue, try:

```
