in_array() expects parameter 2 to be array, null given (nav-menu-template.php)

To update my question with what looks like pertinent information following discussion on SO:

The custom post type in question is heirarchical and posts are being assigned a parent of another custom post type. I tried removing the link but it didn’t help.

The capability type is set to default of ‘post’. I tried setting to ‘page’ but it didn’t help.

It was suggested to print_r($queried_object); right before line 440 and here is the resulting output – note that there is no ‘ancestor’ in the object
