I'm assuming that you have the option selected to "Hide underlined letters for keyboard navigation until I press the Alt key" checked (Display Properties -> Effects). Whenever I disable this option, I correctly see the underline always. When this option is enabled, you shouldn't expect to see the underline until you press the Alt key.
I don't see any behavior here that is bug-worthy.
