The culprit is `org-capture-place-table-line'. It narrows the buffer to
relevant table but leaves point at the beginning of an empty line.
`org-table-analyze' does not any table and exits with nil.

For me the following patch fixes the problem:

#+begin_src diff
1 file changed, 1 insertion(+)
lisp/org-capture.el | 1 +

modified   lisp/org-capture.el
@@ -1156,6 +1156,7 @@ may have been stored before."
       (goto-char end)
       (insert "\n|   |\n|----|\n|    |\n")
       (narrow-to-region (1+ end) (point)))
+    (goto-char (point-min))
     ;; We are narrowed to the table, or to an empty line if there was no table
 
     ;; Check if the template is good
#+end_src

Maybe there is a better way to fix this.

Thanks again for lookint into this.
