Linking directly to a group's collection results in a blank atom+xml alternate link

When following a link that points directly to a collection in a group's library (e.g. https://www.zotero.org/groups/all_things_zotero/items/collectionKey/XX99JMW8) the alternate link that's supposed to point to the atom RSS feed (i.e. //link[@type="application/atom+xml" and @rel="alternate"]) has a blank href value.

If instead you first go to the library (e.g. https://www.zotero.org/groups/all_things_zotero/items/) and then click on the collection, the link has the appropriate value.

Note that going to the collection first, then to the library and back does not update the href value.

This is not a huge deal, except that currently the zotero.org translator relies on the href value being there, which works on every other type of page except a collection in a group's library. I didn't want to start looking for a workaround quite yet. Seems like this is an anomaly on the server side anyway.
