Sorry but it's a pretty stupid bug in
<xsl:function name="u:documentTitle" as="xs:string">
which is found in dita/xsl/common/ditacUtil.xsl.

This bug is triggered by the fact that your map has an empty title.

A simple work around is to add some text of any kind to your 
<map>/<title> or, even easier, to delete your empty <map>/<title> 
(remember that a map title may also be specified using the title attribute).

We'll of course fix this bug in the next release of  XMLmind DITA 
Converter, https://www.xmlmind.com/ditac/, thus in the next release of 
XMLmind XML Editor.
