Steps to reproduce the issue
create single article menu item (menu1 - article: perdemo)
in "perdemo1", link to other article "subdemo" .
go to fontend, click the link to "subdemo"
Expected result
the link should be http://xxxx.com/menu1/xx-catagory/yy-subdemo
Actual result
the link should be http://xxxx.com/xx-catagory/yy-subdemo
System information (as much as possible)
joomla 3.4
Additional comments
The Expected result is base on my knowledge in joomla 2.5, since the Actual Result now redirect to "Home" page, then I can't show the related modules in the orginal menu item...

I am closing this at this time - its kind of a weird but expected behaviour in the current code base.

It depends what the homepage menu item is. If that one is a "better" fit for the linked article, then that menu item is taken. Since you are starting from a single article menu item, chances are indeed high that the home menu item is a better fit.
To solve this, you could create a "hidden" menu item (in a menu you don't assign to a module and thus never show). It should work if you do one to the category of the linked article. Then that should be a better fit than the homepage and this menuitem is taken.
