Hi there!
I just updated to bbPress 2.4 and experienced the same problem. All titles not on bbPress pages were rendered as blank titles.
It seems bbPress 2.4 introduced a new function that filters the wp_title function. As a temporary workaround that does not required bbPress plugin file changes, I have added the following to my theme’s functions.php:
/**
* Restore non bbPress page titles.
*
* v2.4 of bbPress introduced a bug where titles for all non-bbPress pages were blank. This function restores order
* without overwriting the bbPress core files. It uses the exact same function as bbPress for the titles with one
* change: if none of the bbPress queries match, it returns the original title.
*
* The function first removes the bbPress filter that performs this action, then uses it's own routine to determine the
* title.
*
* @param string $title Optional. The title (not used).
* @param string $sep Optional, default is '»'. How to separate the various items within the page title.
* @param string $seplocation Optional. Direction to display title, 'right'.
* @return string Modified title.
*/
