Material properties not updated at runtime until expanded in inspector
How to reproduce:

3. Play scene
4. Press the Space Bar to create and assign a material to the cubes
- Notice that apparently only the Albedo is assigned properly
5. Select one of the cubes in the scene view
6. Expand the Material inspector

This was happening to me when I had the emission color set to pure black by default. Setting it to anything other than pure black avoids the issue. Pretty sure DBURDEN1 is correct; Unity disables the emission component because it figures "well the color is pure black, which doesn't actually do anything, so I'ma just disable the whole color!"

Nvm. It's just that the keyword for the _MetallicGlossMap texture is _METALLICSPECGLOSSMAP instead of _METALLICGLOSSMAP.

I am experiencing this issue on 2019.3.13f1. I am glad to see I could find more people with this issue, but concerned that supposedly this bug was fixed.

Just came across this and thought I'd share my workaround (bug still exists in 2018.4.4). In my case I was changing a shader and later needing to restore the material back to its original shader. Setting the shader worked, but restoring it resulted in this bug.
Workaround was to simply make a copy of the material before modifying the shader, and then using the copy to change the material back to its original state later when needed:
Material originalMaterial = new Material(renderer.material);
renderer.shader = newShader;
.... // sometime later
renderer.material = originalMaterial;
