I have noticed a very similar behavior.  I have a setting to keep from
going to first unread when entering a group.  I like to do it manually
after looking things over.  So when I press 'n' the first time, if the
first unread is in a hidden thread it will be displayed in an article
buffer but remains marked unread. Moving on with another 'n' will
leave the first one showing unread, unless I go back to it.  Pressing
<RET> after the first 'n' still leaves the article unread.

Only happens when the first unread is in a hidden thread.

Related settings:
(set-variable (quote gnus-group-goto-unread) nil)
(setq gnus-thread-hide-subtree t)
