I had this problem, and I think I fixed it by moving %a from the end of
my org-remember-templates to the beginning.  My templates used to look
something like

  * TODO %?
    %U
    %a

Now I use

  * TODO %? %a
    %U

which fixed the bug.  Plus I like it better anyway.

Iirc, the problem arose when %a was empty.
