Weird, that definitely works for me.

Could you then see if this can be reproduced in a VM?  That is, run:

  guix system vm config.scm

where config.scm is your system config, with Emacs added to the
=E2=80=98packages=E2=80=99 field, like so:

  (operating-system
    ;; =E2=80=A6
    (packages (cons emacs %base-packages)))

If the problem doesn=E2=80=99t show up in the VM, it would mean there=E2=80=
=99s some
corrupt state somewhere on your system.

HTH,
