This is not directly related to Ubuntu Pro.

Those 'invisible' updates are actually phased updates.
Update notifier is right to poke because there are updates, but it does not show it because those updates are phased for the GUI.
There is logic to prevent that in the code and it was working before, so I can confirm this is a regression.

I am working on it.
