<pre>When there are two :hover pseudo-classes at play--one for an element's :hover styles and another for a child element's pseudo-element hover styles (see example below)--the transition on the pseudo-element seems to have an erratic delay:
parent:hover {}
parent:hover child::after {}
Removing the initial parent:hover {} styles seem to rectify this issue and cause the pseudo-element's transition to run immediately as expected.
Here's a JSFiddle demo that runs transitions concurrently in Firefox, IE11, even Safari 5.1.7, but has a delay in Chrome:
