@ Acorn - your comments were generally about soft-grouping over a number of different threads, all of which have been helpful to me and not related to my observation.
Apologies if I have confused this thread with my own observation. I discovered what I thought was an issue with soft-grouping and highlighted it as a possible reason for a hidden object to appear visible.
I could replicate the issue I described, but I too may be doing something wrong? I created two objects, soft-grouped them, and hide one. The hidden object correctly disappears from view in the editor, but when previewed appears in situ.
