The ":buffer N" command doesn't display the name of the target buffer
right away, it's postponed until later (after a possible redraw).
You can see the message with ":messages". Check the 'shortmess' option,
it probably allows overwriting a message. Thus the message for the
newly edited buffer overwrites your message.

I'll fix that.

That's because the file message is postponed until after redrawing.
