Thank you for your report.
To help investigate and eventually fix the issue, please provide a
reproducible recipe, preferably starting from "emacs -Q" (if
additional packages are needed, include their loading and activation
in the recipe). This will make sure we see and investigate the same
issue that you are experiencing, and will prevent misunderstandings.
TIA
