Sounds like a problem I was having which came down to
org-remember-apply-template expecting remember's global `annotation'
variable to be non-nil.  I temporarily (and unartfully) fixed it with

,----
| (defadvice org-remember-apply-template
|   (around ajk/fix-org-remember-apply-template activate compile)
|   (with-no-warnings
|     (if annotation
|         ad-do-it
|       (let ((annotation ""))
|         ad-do-it))))
