This regression is due to the recent fix for bug #54067.

After http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/1580ceab7f2c, calling text with only property/value pairs (or no arguments) produces a text object that has the string property set to a cell array containing one empty string.  Previously, the string property was set to an empty string, not a cell array.  I believe the previous behavior is correct here.  I pushed the following change for that on stable and merged with default:

http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/octave/rev/f09f7c7815e3

In debugging this, I also noticed that the error reported here actually occurs in genpropdoc.m around line 1748.  We probably shouldn't use isscalar there without some other check for data type first.  What happens there if the string property is a single character, for example?  I checked in the following changeset on default for that:
