The issue appears to be fixed in 27.8.1.
Please comment if you still have it.

This is due the 'Fill new pencil strokes' option in the Pencil Tool Options dialog — it forces the new paths drawn with the pencil to drop their fills, even though the New Art Has Basic Appearance option may suggest both will be preserved.
An error occurred while saving the comment David Baselt commentedThank you, that was the problem. I just upgraded from CS6, which didn't have that pencil options dialog or, for that matter, the "new art has basic appearance" option. I suppose there must be cases when it's useful to click a filled shape of some sort and have the pencil tool pick up only the stroke style from that shape, but not the fill...

I had the same problem and it seems to be fixed in the Beta. To reproduce: create a new Illustrator document. Create some text on a path in the document. Save the document, then close and re-open it. Convert the text to outlines.
