Yes, I get the same results.  \indent doesn't work either.

I took a look on the code dealing with \setupindenting and it seems as
if first is being processed correctly.  The problem seems to be in
\presetindentation, and redefining it slightly seems to help:

\setupindenting
  [first,medium]
\def\presetindentation
  {\ifindentfirstparagraph\doindentation\else\noindentation\fi}
\starttext
\chapter{First}
\input tufte
\stoptext

I don't in any way guarantee that this is the right way to solve it, but it
works,
