This message was recently posted in the devel list - I don't know yet
whether what you describe is a bug or a feature ;^)

" I think that sub ItemInfo? (Search.pm) returns
  no data if items.holdingbranch is NULL.
  The result is that detail.pl info table remains
  blank and "Total number of items appears as "0"
  in the biblio detail.pl record table. Doesn't
  seem to make sense..? Is that the desired result... ?"


Simple translation:
For each item, make sure you have an entry in the 'holdingbranch" column
of the 'items' table... for example <items.holdingbranch> contains  'S'
where 'S' would be a key for one of your branches - in default koha
distribution S=Shannon

Tricky stuff eh? :)
