This is expected. As per `org-capture-templates' docstring, "entry"
capture type inserts top-level entries into files:

               entry       an Org node, with a headline.  Will be filed
                           as the child of the target entry or as a
                           top-level entry.  Its default template is:
                             "* %?

I am unable to reproduce this problem.
May you please simplify the example, so that it can be reproduced
starting from emacs -Q?
