Multiline breaking in blank line

This has been reports a few times but I can not put the answer together.
I would like these lines to arrive as one multiline. But they arrive as 5 lines. Which is odd because the pattern clearly only matches the first line.

Odd;

As soon as I did this post it works.

I tested this pattern:

multiline.pattern: '^\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}.\d{3}|$'

no good

Switched it back to

 multiline.pattern: '^\d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}.\d{3}'

add it worked.
