Ignores contextual filter limiting the view results [#3049742]

I have a node with a multi-value entity reference field. I have a view that displays a list of the entities that can be referenced from my node. I am passing the nid to the view as a contextual filter, which limits the results displayed by the view to those referenced by the node. This works.

I have an autocomplete filter on the view on the referenced entities' title. When I start typing, the autocomplete filter suggests referenced entities from other nodes.

It's a bit confusing to explain, so I will try to demonstrate.

Node 1 ( nid: 1 )
- field_entity_reference_field
- entity A
- entity B

Node 2 ( nid: 2 )
- field_entity_reference_field
- entity C
- entity D

"View of Entities" - Contextual Filter: nid
Filter: Entity Title

Pass the NID "1" to the view.
View Results:
- entity A
- entity B

Autocomplete filter suggestions:
- entity A
- entity B
- entity C
- entity D

So, the autocomplete filter fails to consider the contextual filter, displaying suggestions that aren't in the view display. Does that make sense?

Found this related issue for D7. In my case, the Contextual Filter is using "When the filter value is NOT available" -> Provide a default value -> Raw Value From URL. I have a view of Nodes referencing an Entity. I am embedding the view block in the Entity Display, and using the Entity's ID as the filter.
