This is because of the recent change in ff796823e5
with the hope that it doesn't break other modes.
But your bug report helped to reveal that it
causes breakage.  So I had to revert it.

Gregory, could you please see if it can be improved
to not fail in the reported case?  Additionally,
on emacs-devel Zhiwei Chen said this:

  It failed to work when buffer is auto selected via
  `display-buffer-alist’.  When the point moves to the *Occur* buffer,
  typing “n”, “p” still sends “n”, “p” to isearch.

  (defun display-buffer-select (buffer alist)
    (let ((window (display-buffer-below-selected buffer alist)))
      (when (window-live-p window)
        (select-window window))))

  (setq display-buffer-alist '(("\\*Occur\\*" (display-buffer-select))))

Maybe this could be handled as well?
