That looks ok.

Please check the values of `TeX-expand-list' and
`TeX-expand-list-builtin' for the entry "%V".  By default,
`TeX-expand-list' is empty (reserved for the user), and
`TeX-expand-list-builtin' contains the entry

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
 ("%V"
  (lambda nil
    (TeX-source-correlate-start-server-maybe)
    (TeX-view-command-raw)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

In your case, it seems there's an entry

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  ("%V"
   (lambda nil (TeX-active-master-with-quotes (TeX-output-extension) t)))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

That said, this entry isn't wrong.  It's just not the default value.
The error you are getting seems to be caused by `TeX-expand-pos' being
nil.  Or probably it's not even defined but your version of tex-buf.el
checks a now undefined var `pos' as it did prior to auctex 13.

Maybe try M-x package-delete RET auctex RET, then check if there's no
~/.emacs.d/elpa/auctex-*/ directory left over and reinstall.

HTH,
