Since this only appears to be affecting your system, chances are there's something in your config involved. And since this just appeared, maybe it's a combination of a change in a recent ESS release that interacts badly?
You can load ESS without your .emacs file via
emacs -Q
followed by running the following code:
(require 'package)
(setq package-load-list
'((ess t)
(julia-mode t)))
(package-initialize)
(assuming you installed via `package`)
That would allow us to at least rule out a bug in the version of ESS you've got, and give you a starting place for adding your .emacs back in to narrow down the source of the problem.
I have a directory of these snippets, `ess.el`, `auctex.el`, `org.el`, `polymode.el`, each with a minimal config for the package in question, since I regularly discover new ways to break things ;)
Good luck,
Tyler
