Not able to create a notebook via org-notebook-new-notebook

[bigDaddyS1oth]

It's sort of a weird issue. I'm just taking notes while learning Apache Spark through a course I got on Udemy.

Behaviour

Doing M-x org-notebook-new-notebook and typing in a name for the notebook (for me it's ~/Documents/OrgProgShit/Apache-Spark) and upon pressing RET the minibuffer will show Notebook name: ~/Audio. Pressing RET again says /home/my_user/Audio/[some random audio file in that directory]. This happens always regardless of the name given for the new notebook, whether you type in .org after the name, and if there's a specific created empty directory for the new notebook.

Expected Behaviou

Actually being about to create a new notebook, or at least getting an error for why I can't create one.

Configuration files

Here's all I have in a file that I load in my init.el for Org stuff (path to it is ~/.emacs.d/layers/org/org-cfg.el):

;; Couple of basic keys (others will be in keys.el)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c l") 'org-store-link)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c a") 'org-agenda)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c c") 'org-capture)
(global-set-key (kbd "C-c b") 'org-iswitchb)

(setq org-todo-keywords
      '((sequence "TODO(t)" "|" "DONE(d)")
	(sequence "WAITING(w)" "VERIFY(v)" "IDLE(i)" "|" "ALMOST(a)" "FIXED(x)")
	(sequence "|" "FEEDBACK(e)")
	(sequence "|" "CANCELED(c)")))

;; Buncha Orgmode addons

  :ensure t
  :hook (org-mode-hook . org-autolist-mode))

(use-package org-bullets
  :ensure t
  :commands 'org-mode
  :init
  (add-hook 'org-mode-hook 
  		(lambda () (org-bullets-mode 1))))
;
;;

(use-package ob-async
  :ensure t)

  :ensure t)

I was unable to reproduce the problem.

I suspect, based on a static code trace, that ido-read-file-name is probably causing the problem.

Could you please try on a "fresh install" of emacs? As in make a temporary dir with a skeletal .emacs which includes practically just org-notebook and then HOME=tmpdir emacs

Same problem here, using Doom Emacs. Prompt gets stuck on "New Notebook Name"
