I wonder if you have Soften/Smooth Edges turned on to a non-zero value. If that doesn't do anything try turning gone "View Hidden Geometry" in the "View" menu and see if a dotted line shows up where the lines are missing. It should also then let you select the individual surfaces.
I don't think anything is wrong with the OSM surfaces when you have it softened, you just can't select them when that happens. What I see if I select in the OpenStudio inspector if a smoothed surface selected is the space, vs. one of the surfaces. Showing hidden geometry or turning of smoothing solves the selection issue.

This is with softening turned on. Notice how inspector shows space instead of surface.
Same model with softening turned off. Inspector now shows surface.
