Normally, glossaries-extra is supposed to emphasize the first occurrence of a glossary entry in text. In my case it does not and I do not understand why.

The project is too large to share in its entirety, but I will try to post relevant lines of code.

%main.tex
\documentclass[fleqn,titlepage]{article}
\usepackage[a4paper, left=30mm,right=20mm,top=20mm,bottom=20mm]{geometry}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage{siunitx}
\usepackage{mathtools}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage[style=numeric-comp,citestyle=numeric-comp,sorting=none]{biblatex}
\usepackage{csquotes}
\usepackage{graphicx}
\usepackage[acronym,symbols,nogroupskip,nonumberlist]{glossaries-extra}
\usepackage[]{hyperref}
\usepackage[nameinlink,noabbrev]{cleveref}
\usepackage{makecell}
\usepackage{array}

\begin{document}


% BODY
\include{content/theory}

%GLOSSARIES
\pagebreak
\printnoidxglossary[sort=word,style=super]

\pagebreak
\printbibliography[heading=bibintoc,title={References}]




\end{document}


%glo.tex
%\newglossaryentry{linear inverse problem}{name=linear inverse problem,first={\emph{linear inverse problem}},
    description={}}
\newglossaryentry{linear inverse problem}{name=linear inverse problem,
    description={}}

%theory.tex
\section{Theoretical Framework}
    In this section the theoretical framework shall be laid out starting with the information theoretical fundamentals. First, the central \gls{linear inverse problem} is outlined, followed by the algorithm intended to solve it including the employed principles of machine learning. Finally the underlying physical model is introduced.

Uncommenting the \glssetcategoryattribute{general}{textformat}{textit} yields what you would expect: All occurances are emphasized. Without it the first one is not emphasized. \glsresetall{} does not do anything either. However, specifying any entry like this \newglossaryentry{linear inverse problem}{name=linear inverse problem,first={\emph{linear inverse problem}}, description={}} does emphasize the first occurrence.

Is this a bug?

I have fixed the issue using

\defglsentryfmt{%
  \ifglsused{\glslabel}{%
    \glsgenentryfmt%
  }{%
    % Typeset first use
    \emph{\glsgenentryfmt}%
  }%
}

in the preamble. I still do not know what caused it in the first place.
