Try using a list of headers rather than a regexp that matches all.
In my .gnus file I have:

    ;; The headers that are shown for messages or news-articles.
    (setq gnus-visible-headers '("^From:" "^Date:" "^Subject:" "^To:" "^Cc:"
                                 "^Followup-To:" "^Reply-To:" "^Newsgroups:"))
    ;; The order of headers shown in article buffers.
    (setq gnus-sorted-header-list '("^Date:" "^From:" "^Reply-To:"
                                    "^Followup-To:" "^Subject:"
                                    "^To:" "^Cc:" "^Newsgroups:"))

and it works like a charm.
