Create a com contacts menu item. Click on the "category" tab. Options are set to "use global"
Options should say something like "use global (show)" or "use global (hide"
Use global is shown but to find out what the setting is you will have to go into options. Unlike on com_contact when it will tell you the global option (a much nicer workflow when troubleshooting). See screenshots for more clarity (hopefully)

I cannot confirm this issue with any menu item type of group "Contacts".
Tested with current staging nightly build 3.8.9-dev .
Example with menu type "List Contacts in a Category"
