Remember to cover the basics, that is, what you expected to happen and
what in fact did happen.  You don't know how to make a good report?  See

     https://orgmode.org/manual/Feedback.html#Feedback

Your bug report will be posted to the Org mailing list.
------------------------------------------------------------------------

When exporting a LaTeX beamer presentation as an asynchronous process
(by using C-a prior to selecting the export option), the export fails with the following error:

(error "Unknown \"nil\" back-end: Aborting export")

This does not occur when exporting the same buffer to HTML or to
standard LaTeX. What should happen is that the export occurs in the
background just as it would when run in the foreground. This is
especially frustrating if org-export-in-background is set to t by
default.

Details of my setup are below:

Could you please provide detailed steps how to reproduce the problem
together with a sample beamer presentation file?
