getting "before first headline at position xxx in buffer *Org Note*" when clocking out

Hi all,

I recently started getting the message "before first headline at position
xxx in buffer *Org Note*" when clocking out items.

After much frustration and testing I've summarized these steps to reproduce
the issue.

1. Download https://orgmode.org/org-9.4.6.tar.gz and extract to ~/org-9.4.6
2. Start emacs with emacs -Q
    I've tried both 27 and 28, 28 has native comp. same result.
3. evaluate (add-to-list 'load-path "~/org-9.4.6/lisp")
4. create a new org file, create a heading and clock in
5. evaluate (setq org-log-note-clock-out t)
6. clock out.

I think there is a good chance another person can reproduce the issue too
with the steps above.
Would anybody be kind enough to try to reproduce the issue?

Many thanks
Dave

Hi Dave,

Thanks for going to the effort of working out a series of steps to
reproduce the issue, it's most helpful. If you wouldn't mind, do you
think you could try testing the current HEAD/master and seeing if you
still encounter the issue?

I tried the steps on the current master, and I was not able to reproduce
this. I think this has been already fixed
