I cannot reproduce this: it works for me as expected. Are you sure "M-x man" on your system is capable of completion in the default completion mode in "emacs -Q"? If not, maybe your man-db database is missing or outdated?
On NetBSD the output from apropos is different in format to the one on GNU/Linux. Could that be why the behavior is stuck?
My system runs "emacs -Q" and the following "M-x man RET a TAB" also gets stuck, and this is without attempting to set icomplete-vertical-mode.
On GNU/Linux, I observe the expected behavior you see. On NetBSD, the system release is 9.2 and up to date to pkgsrc-2021Q4. -- vl
