GPO not being applied

I'm trying to use a GPO to log off disconnected RDS/TS-users. However I cannot get it to work. I have created a GPO and linked it to the OU that contains the test user object. Further on, the test user has been added to the "Security Filtering" box for the GPO.

Having ran gpupdate /force and also restarted the RDS/TS-server several times I still cannot see any hint of the GPO being applied when doing an RSoP on the test user. It is a very simple setup with only a few GPOs (as far as I can see only the default ones).

Copy&Paste from the Setteing-tab of GPO in question:
User Configuration (Enabled)
Policies
Administrative Templates
Policy definitions (ADMX files) retrieved from the local machine.Windows Components/Remote Desktop Services/Remote Desktop Session Host/Session Time Limits
Policy Setting Comment
Set time limit for disconnected sessions Enabled
End a disconnected session 1 minute

For GPOs on TS, please follow what is on the guide I wrote, "Terminal Services A to Z" available at no cost at http://www.wtslabs.com. It has all that and much more, step-by-step.

Having ran gpresult I saw:
"The following GPOs were not applied because they were filtered out
------------------------------------------------------------------
Log Off Disconnected Grodan-users Policy
Filtering: Not Applied (Empty)"

I also saw that the last time the group policy was applied was hours ago, so I ran gpupdate /force logged in as the test user and it worked perfectly.
