Is previously noted, this doesn't seem to be reproducible in a stock
Emacs (i.e., "emacs -Q"), so perhaps this is caused by something in your
configuration? Can you reproduce the problem with "emacs -Q"?
Also note that messaging when there's an active minibuffer has been
changed in Emacs 28 so that it'll never overwrite the prompt (but
instead add a [message] to the end of the echo area).
Finally, note that you can set `set-message-function' to filter out any
messages that you don't want to have happen.
