The extractcoverthumbs tool tells me it extracted the cover and everything went fine but no cover shows up. What's weird is that files (also KFX) that I downloaded to the Kindle before the update still show covers. Could be that the firmware update changed something. FYI, these are books that aren't available at Amazon and were scanned.
I've checked thumbnail creation process in my Oasis with the latest firmware 5.8.5. No problem at all. All thumbnails are visible. I suspect that the problem is in your book. Check in Kindle Previewer if cover is properly set up:
