Hi, This definitely isn't the default behavior in DSpace 7.6.x. Restricted Bitstreams should still appear, but will have a lock icon next to them.
It may be possible that the issue is your "Bundle" objects are also access restricted. If the Bundle is restricted, then it may *hide* the Bitstreams. Ideally, if you have a publicly READable Item, then all its Bundles should also be publicly READable. But, I recall there being an issue of this type in the past here: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/issues/8902 and it was improved here: https://github.com/DSpace/DSpace/pull/8901 If that's the problem, you should be able to modify the Bundle permissions in the Item's Authorizations (on the "Edit Item" -> "Status" tab) to allow for Anonymous READ access.
