Jeff,
If the inverter is on, it may be that the engine charging path may not be able to keep up with the load. That would cause the house bank to discharge while driving. That makes it appear as if the alternator doesn't charge the house bank.
Of course, unless special efforts are made, alternator charging is about the starter battery, not the house bank.

What I'm missing here is the "Inverting" comment.. That has nothing to do with the charge process, and is a user select manual button push.
that I'll agree with with, but I've not seen an inverter go into invert mode without being turned On
