Error inflating class Fragment, when adding navGraph attribute

I know there are a few questions and answers about this problem, but none of the solutions fixed my problem. I get an

android.view.InflateException: Binary XML file line #11: Binary XML file line #11: Error inflating class fragment

error, when I add the navGraph attribute with the navigation xml-file.

So here is my activity_login.xml (with the fragment container):

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context=".LoginActivity">

<fragment
    android:name="androidx.navigation.fragment.NavHostFragment"
    android:id="@+id/loginFragmentContainer"
    android:layout_width="0dp"
    android:layout_height="0dp"
    app:defaultNavHost="true"

    app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
    app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"

    app:navGraph="@navigation/nav_graph"/>

</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

The nav_graph.xml is just as empty as it is generated.

Here are the important dependencies for the fragment:

implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-fragment:2.3.0"
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-ui:2.3.0"
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-fragment-ktx:2.3.0"
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-ui-ktx:2.3.0"
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-dynamic-features-fragment:2.3.0"
androidTestImplementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-testing:2.3.0"
implementation "androidx.fragment:fragment:1.2.5"
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-fragment-ktx:2.3.0"
implementation "androidx.navigation:navigation-ui-ktx:2.3.0"

When I do not include this line app:navGraph="@navigation/nav_graph" in my activity_login.xml -layout, I do not get an error. What's my mistake?

I am using Android Studio 4.1 Canary 10

Please just ask if I need to share more code or information... Thanks in advance and best regards!

Your navigation graph needs to have at least one destination - the start destination of your graph and the first screen users see when you inflate your graph as per the Getting Started guide.
