Workaround: skip the summary rows by creating custom GridViewSearchRowInfo:  

private void radGridView1_CreateRowInfo(object sender, GridViewCreateRowInfoEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.RowInfo is GridViewSearchRowInfo)
    {
        e.RowInfo = new CustomGridViewSearchRowInfo(e.ViewInfo);
    }
}


public class CustomGridViewSearchRowInfo : GridViewSearchRowInfo
        {
            public CustomGridViewSearchRowInfo(GridViewInfo viewInfo) : base(viewInfo)
            {
            }

            protected override bool MatchesSearchCriteria(string searchCriteria, GridViewRowInfo row, GridViewColumn col)
            {
                if (row is GridViewSummaryRowInfo)
                {
                    return false;
                }
                return base.MatchesSearchCriteria(searchCriteria, row, col);
            }
        }
