Navigation does not work in sub-levels. If the Nav Mesh Bounds Volume in a sub level is not touching a Nav Mesh Bounds Volume in the Persistent Level, it will not appear or function during Play.

It makes no difference if the sub-level is set to Always Loaded.

Other unusual but probably related behavior is shown in the reporting user's video:
