I think the active state is used if you keyboard navigate the links without activating them. The link that will be followed by pressing the space/enter key can be "active" without sharing the "hover" status. True, many people navigate solely with the mouse. As a general rule, I would suggest being extra explicit about your selectors and rules rather than relying on default behaviors.
