I think Ben just was not aware of LV being alive. He knew Anakin was LV, but he thought he killed him.
He hasn't been listening the news for the last 10 years.
But then he didn't have any source saying LV was dead either. The last thing he knew was "rise, Lord Vader". And if his belief had been "the time of Jedi is over", and there are few in the galaxy other than a Jedi could kill a Sith apprentice, the best he could have assumed had to be that he had no idea who's alive or dead. OTOH the shock when he heard the news was not one of "well I had hoped otherwise", but rather "I was 1000% sure he was dead!"
Obviously we as the audience know otherwise, but having your limbs cut off and then catching on fire seems pretty much like an automatic death sentence. It's not that much of a stretch for Obi-Wan to assume that Anakin died right then and there.
The question I'm more interested in is how much Bail knew about Anakin's fall. Did he know Anakin became Vader or did he just know that Anakin fell to the dark side? Because surely as an Imperial Senator he would have heard of or even crossed paths with Darth Vader, so if he knew that Anakin is Vader then he's been keeping it from Obi-Wan this whole time
