Ok, I figured out a “hackish” temporary sorta-fix.

If you go to the groups-loop.php file (/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/groups/groups-loop.php)

And on line 28 add “forum” (no quotes, and no space) after where it says bp_group_permalink() ?>

. . . the link from the groups page will automatically send people to the forum page. This solution has limitations, obviously. If people get to the group via any other link, they’ll still end up on the group’s activity page. But it’s a start until somebody much cleverer than me shares a real way to do this.
