I'm not sure why would you need to use :distant-foreground, but maybe
your actual situation is more complicated than the test case you
presented in this bug report.  With that test case, if I modify the
face definition like this:

  (defface my-line
    '((((type graphic)) :background "yellow")
      (((type tty)) :inherit font-lock-comment-face :underline t))
    "Line face")

I see the line in question all the time.  Is this what you want?
