Solutions you have tried
I'm able to fix the file by running mp3val -f my_file.mp3
on it.
Additional Information
I can't provide the files directly due to copyright, but if you're interested I can probably extract the tags if you're able to guide me a bit. It's easy enough for me to fix the files now that I know a workaround, but for users of applications like Lollypop that use GStreamer and don't offer tag editing, it's hard to fix. I tried a number of other tag editors and none of them repro'd this issue.
