)Short description of error
Ocean modifier with time keyframed does not animate after creating action-strip in NLA editor.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
See the attached blend. A simple plane with ocean modifier added to it with time animated with 2 keyframes (linear interpolation). The ocean animates fine... but once I push the animation on the NLA stack (in NLA editor / add action-strip) the ocean no longer animates. I noticed that the ocean does animate however once you hit TAB to enter the edit mode in NLA action-strip. I also tried to animate the NLA strip time (with keyframes) but still the ocean does not animate.
Note: Aligorith suggested this may be a bug in the old depsgraph and asked me to mention todo notes written in depsgraph.c - 2036.

If you choose the action in Action Editor of DopeSheet, it should works again.
Yeah, except that now it’s not the pushed NLATrack (action strip) that is animating, but the PlaneAction on top of it. If the NLATrack pushed on the stack had its time remapped (e.g. animate/keyframe the Strip-Time), this animation would not play when you make the selection like had you mentioned. What is animating is the action that is not yet pushed onto the NLA stack as an action strip. (note the PlaneAction on top of the action-strip in your screenshot)

I'm sorry, I seemed to misunderstand the meaning of your question.
Sindra, try to push the action onto the NLA stack (creating a new action-strip).. then try to animate the Strip Time of that strip, effectively remapping its time. See if you succeed to get the ocean animation to go from normal speed to slow-mo speed as you playback. It seems that aligorith thinks it's probably a Dependency Graph issue.

I'm sorry, some expression was different.
It works when I make a similar object in new dependency graph, but does not work even if I make a similar object in old dependency graph.
The attached blend file does not work in new dependency graph either.
It works when I make it in new dependency graph, but it does not work when I save it and reload it.
