Cannot select Zombie REPL buffer with cider-connect #1755

Description

@mrrodriguez

Expected behavior

I use cider-connect to connect to an already running nREPL server process. Cider finds that I have Zombie REPL buffers via a message (1) like

Zombie REPL buffer exists (*cider-repl localhost:11111*, *cider-repl localhost:22222*). Reuse? (y or no)

I say "y". Cider prompts with message (2)

Choose REPL buffer: 

I try to type the buffer name, it auto-completes and I can choose one of the two listed in the message (1) to reuse the zombie REPL buffer.

Actual behavior

In message (2) the minibuffer does suggest any auto-completions as I try to type the buffer name. I also can never find a match for Cider to open, even if I type out the whole name myself and hit .

Steps to reproduce the problem

After selecing "y" to message (1) above to respond to message (2)

I type:

*cider-repl

Since there is no auto-complete, I now need to hit key. However, I cannot hit . If I hit it maps to I guess so I get a message in the prompt

[no match]

I can try to escape the key with a C-q , then complete the whole buffer name myself.
When I do this, I still get

[no match]
