I just tried it (never used dd) and it only kind of works here, maybe
that's the reason for the different experiences?

If I 'dd <space> <tab> <tab>' I get:
$  dd 
--help     bs=        conv=      ibs=       obs=       seek=      
--version  cbs=       count=     if=        of=        skip=

What I don't get is any completion after 'dd if='
And one strange thing is that 'dd if <tab> <tab>' completes to: 'dd
if\='
