this seems to be a bug as it works in Vim. Closer observation reveals that the state indicator changes from "-- INSERT --" to "-- insert --" to "-- (insert) VISUAL --" and back to "-- INSERT --" again. Evil would need to go through the same kind of states to behave correctly, but doesn't at the moment. Instead it, quite literally, only executes the next command in normal state, in fact if I try reproducing with "i C-o v l", the letter "l" is inserted, so I suppose the movement you did was with arrow keys. Feel free to hand in a bug at the issue tracker.
