i have a similar problem with the E -- it shows up eventually
after some time-out, or once i press another key.
and here's my ~/.inputrc (altho i use tcsh, not bash):
set show-all-if-ambiguous on
"\e[15~":reverse-search-history
"\e[17~":forward-search-history
what's the parallel config file for tcsh?
