Choosing a connecting filter Dimension to enable sheet filter

Team,

I have a Dashboard that contains two worksheets.

Worksheet 1:

Bar chart of number work items in 4 different status that have exceeded SLA

Open ---------------> 4

Closed ---------->3

In process --------------------------->10

Cancelled --> 1

Worksheet 2:

List of work items

Work item#      Work item name   Work item status  

The worksheet 1 is enabled as Filter.

Action: I click on the bar that says "Closed" on worksheet 1

Expected Behaviour: Only the 3 items that have exceeded SLA should appear on the Worksheet 2

Actual Behaviour: All the items (more than 3) that have status as Closed appear on Worksheet 2

How would I go about correcting this? If I add Work item# as a "Detail" on Worksheet 1, it works - but the bar chart has boxes for all the work items.
