Looks like this is due to this hack in my init.el:

    (defun spw/gnus-request-group-scan (group _info)
      (when (eq 'nnselect (car (gnus-find-method-for-group group)))
        (gnus-activate-group "nnmaildir+fmail:inbox" 'scan)))
    (advice-add 'gnus-request-group-scan :before #'spw/gnus-request-group-scan)

If I drop that then C-x C-s doesn't help.
