[users@httpd] DirectoryListing Hiding Folder that contains .htaccess with 'require valid-user'

Howdy,

I am running into an issue where the directory listing with:

  Options +Indexes +FollowSymLinks +MultiViews
  AllowOverride All

is hiding any folder that contains a .htaccess file with 'require
valid-user'. The specific .htaccess file we are using is:

  AuthUserFile /data/hpc/www/accounting/graphical/.htpasswd
  AuthName "HPC Graphical Accounting"
  AuthType Basic
  require valid-user

When the line 'require valid-user' is commented out, the directory is
shown in the parent's directory listing. When added, it is hidden.

How do I disable Apache to stop hiding the directory when 'require
valid-user' is added?

Apache's IndexIgnore is the default:
   IndexIgnore .??* *~ *# HEADER* README* RCS CVS *,v *,t

The folder name is graphical-accounting which does not match the regex
above. The directory and all files are correctly owned by the same
user apache is running as, and has the correct folder/file
permissions.

Any ideas?
-Adam

IndexOptions +showForbidden, or arrange or the same authentication to
occur in the parent directory.
