I verified this issue.
First I change the /etc/grub.d/20_memtest86+ like below.

-menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+)" {
+menuentry "Memory test (memtest86+)" --hotkey f9{

After update-grub and reboot, F9 could work.

Next, I change the /etc/default/grub, I added 'GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=hidden'
After update-grub and reboot, F9 could work.

Next, I change the /etc/default/grub like below.
-GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=10
After update-grub and reboot, F9 could work.

So, I thought this issue should be fixed.
