I've noticed the same thing. I usually use the Search sidebar
(Ctrl+Shift+F) because I typically have to find many occurrences of
the same term. I click on each item in the Results list, Acrobat goes
to the page, but doesn't highlight it.

I've just taken to clicking it twice: once for Acrobat to go to the
page, and another time for it to highlight it.
