Just did a test with a simple filter and it works for me:

function uppercase_title_in_sidebar($o) {
    if (in_the_loop()) {
        return $o;
    } else {
        return strtoupper($o);
    }
}

add_filter('the_title', 'uppercase_title_in_sidebar');

(It turns post titles found in sidebars to all caps.)

Maybe your theme templates do something unusual with the loop?  What
theme are you using?

Cheers,
