See my other reply today.  There was a bug regarding a 0 or 1 value for
`icicle-expand-input-to-common-match'.  Perhaps the fix for that will fix the
problem you see.

Then you want:
`icicle-expand-input-to-common-match' = 1 or 2
`icicle-incremental-completion' = non-nil (e.g. t or `always')

That should be OK now, with the fix I uploaded.

It was a bug.
