Assuming this is not a caching problem as described in an earlier thread, it's possible the other paths in your comparison have different tags that those the layer will choose to include. Tags affecting paths could be things like sac_scale=* or trail_visibility=*, or a layer could decide to render highway=path but not highway=footway (general purpose paths vs footpaths perhaps found in more urban areas).
The general rule is to map what's on the ground, don't tag something just to get it to show on the map. Have a look at the tags used in the other paths. If (and only if) they apply to your paths then happily go apply them to yours, and wait for the caching to do it's thing. I found the wiki a very useful source of what tags to use. Note: each layer will only render the things chosen by its developers. That explains why didn't layers //Glen 🍃 P.S. I've written this off the top of my head.
