keepcolums is flacky

[JoranAngevaare]

Describe the bug keepcolumns gives sometimes weird issues when it's run on not-yet stored data

To Reproduce

st = straxen.contexts.xenonnt(cmt_version='global_v6')
st.set_config({correction_name: correction_value})
df = st.get_df( ['018904', '018816'],
               'event_info',
               keep_columns='cs1',
               selection_str='(s1_area > 0) & (s2_area > 0)')
# Now this will fail also if I try it a second time
df = st.get_df( ['018904', '018816'],
               'event_info',
               keep_columns='cs1',
               selection_str='(s1_area > 0) & (s2_area > 0)')
