I would try trace-function-background on completing-read and check with
which args it is called when the problem appears. Especially check the
INITIAL-INPUT arg.
In any case, using the normal debugger (not edebug) is useful,
e.g. debug-on-entry completing-read, check how it is called etc.
Check elements of minibuffer-setup-hook whether there could be the
culprit.
Finally, the mysterious initial inputs must be stored somewhere. Try to
find out with `apropos-value'.
Michael.
