Calling monarch.top() is returning nil

From forum post: https://forum.defold.com/t/monarch-simple-screen-manager/14138/30?u=britzl

"my game fails in the init of a screen’s scripts, because “monarch.top()” returns nil."

function init(self)
	msg.post(".", "acquire_input_focus")
	msg.post("#", "start")
end

function on_message(self, message_id, message, sender)
	if message_id == hash("start") then
		monarch.show(hash("musicSpace"),{no_stack=true})
		--monarch.show(hash("gameSpace"),{no_stack=true})
		
		--monarch.show(hash("Mousechief"))
		--monarch.show(hash("Introduction"))
		--monarch.show(hash("BattleOne"))
		monarch.show(hash("combat"), {}, {"battle01"})
		--monarch.show(hash("testScreen"), {}, {"testScript"})
				
	end 
end

Unable to reproduce. I modified the basic example. In basic.script I did:

local monarch = require "monarch.monarch"

function init(self)
	msg.post(".", "acquire_input_focus")
	msg.post("#", "show_screens")
end

function on_message(self, message_id, message, sender)
	if message_id == hash("show_screens") then
		monarch.show("screen1",{no_stack=true})
		monarch.show("screen2")
	end
end

And in screen2.gui__script I have this:

local monarch = require "monarch.monarch"

function init(self)
	msg.post(".", "acquire_input_focus")
	print("TOP", monarch.top())
end

With the log showing DEBUG:SCRIPT: TOP hash: [screen2]

Ah, nvm, tested the wrong branch. I am able to reproduce 👍
