If you are using Grub2 you probably have to

Edit /etc/default/grub

uncomment GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT like this:

GRUB_DEFAULT=0
#GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT=0 qq
GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT_QUIET=true
GRUB_TIMEOUT="10"
GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian`
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet splash"
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=""

then run sudo update-grub
