Component used: Navigation Compose
Version used: 2.4.0-alpha05
Devices/Android versions reproduced on: Pixel 5, SDK 31

I have an Activity which displays a screen with a button (ComposableA) and when I tap on the button, I want to display another screen (ComposableB). When I tap back on ComposableB, I don't want to go back to the ComposableA, instead I want to close the app.

My understanding was that I could do it like this:

@Composable
fun ComposableA(navController: NavController) {
    Button(
        onClick = {
            // Pop everything up to and including the "composableA" destination off
            // the back stack before navigating to the "composableB" destination.
            navController.navigate("composableB") {
                popUpTo("composableA") { inclusive = true }
            }
        }
    ) { Text(text = "Navigate from A to B") }
}

When I tap the button, ComposableB appears for a brief moment, but then the app crashes with the following stack trace (see below). When I remove the inclusive = true (or when I set it to false) the app doesn't crash, but then tapping the phone's back button takes me back to ComposableA. I don't want – I want the app to close when I tap back. Think of ComposableA as just a login screen.

I can't figure out what am I doing wrong. I was following this documentation. I feel like this could be a bug in Navigation or Compose.

These are my build.gradle files, if that helps:
