So it was the Android audio accessory mode.

256 bytes per USB frame would correspond to 64 kHz, instead of the
nominal 44.1 kHz.

The audio accessory sample format is fixed, and that mode is no longer
developed, so increasing the limit to +50% would be sufficient to work
around this problem.

I don't know if this is a bug in Google's generic AOA code, or if LG did
some changes; I have not heard any other report so far ...
