Filtering DynamicContent items on Frontend

I am running into Validation of viewstate MAC failed errors when trying to follow this example.

http://www.sitefinity.com/blogs/boyan-barnevs-blog-/2013/04/03/filtering-sitefinity-dynamiccontentview-on-the-frontend 

If I enter a value into the city text box and click the search button I receive the validation of viewstate MAC failed error.  I have paging turned on and I noticed that if I go to a different page other than the default page #1 that the search feature appears to work fine.  It is just on this initial page that it fails.

 Things I have checked:

1.) There is not action value set on my masterpage <form> tag.  It reads <form id="mainForm" runat="server">

2.) I enabled viewstate from Titles & Properties for the page in question

 I have created custom forms in the past and have not had to generate a machine key so this feels like something else going on, but any input would be helpful.

I do not get this error if I use a template that is based on Sitefinity's UI and not MasterPage.

I have narrowed it down to being an issue with one of my MVC widgets that is on the template.  I am using nested templates based off a masterpage so when I base the page off just the master it does not have an issue, but once I base it off one of the nested templates with my MVC widgets it starts to have issues.  

 If I figure it out I'll update everyone.

So the culprit is that I decorated my controller action with

 [OutputCache(NoStore = true, Duration = 0)]

I need to have the MVC widget not cache on the page, but I do not want to disable caching for the page entirely.  I am aware that Sitefinity has some wrappers to setup cache substitution, but I have not used them before and am not sure how I should go about addressing this.

Any suggestions on what I could do to invalidate caching for an MVC widget that will not break the page when using custom filtering?
