I didn't reproduce this with the same version on sid. I'm not sure
you've encountered the bug with cgdisk but maybe with gdisk (as you

It actually select the default value (which is "hardcoded" at 2048 in
gpt.h: #define DEFAULT_ALIGNMENT 2048).

I've Cced upstream user list, as i can't test with a real device but
only with a test file i've generated with dd (maybe people have ideas on
your issue).
