What this seemed to be was some ASCII overlap at the beginning of the PPP session. I was using ASCII (i.e. scripted) login at the time and the message the access server sent ("your address is x.x.x.x, etc") was being interpreted by PPP as invalid frames. Check that your access server isn't trying to send you some text garbage. My solution was to go to strictly PAP authentication, and in our case this meant the access server did not spew garbage after the authentication completed. Let me know if this sounds consistent with your situation.
