I can't look at your vi because it's in 8.0.
There may be some filter types which necessarily have this behavior.
See the Labview Analysis Concepts documentation and in particular look
at the definition of the IIR response. If one particular coefficient
(b0) is zero for your filter you will see that behavior.
Note that you would see exactly this behavior for an analog filter in
some cases; driving a low-pass filter with a step function at t =
0 would give zero output at t = 0+.
