changes to an underline when I hit return and line (2) appears. Line (2)
displays properly.

System:
4 processor true-intel CPUs
Fedora-26 with all upgrades
Konsole (KDE) version Version 17.04.1

What's going on? How can it be fixed?

I first saw this a couple years ago, in a different distro, and noticed
that changing character size (try Ctrl_+ or Ctrl_- in Konsole) made it
go away. It's probably a Konsole problem.

Seeing this not in gnome (gnome-terminal), and not on the virtual terminals (ctrl alt F1,...).

Perhaps your problem is that your bash prompt is highlighted, so the echoed _ character is almost invisible over the following bash prompt.

Kind regards
