Reproduced with LibO 4.1.2.3 on Win7.
Reproduced even without the table of content (so exonerated)

It seems that headers present in frames take precedence to headers present in basic text ; it could be corroborated by the order of titles within the navigator. This doesn't explain all. Bug, perhaps with enhancement.

First thing to do : to freeze a specification. For instance, I checked a French dictionnary (Le Petit Larousse Illustré) :
1/ If there are headers in the page :
- in the left page headers, it displays the name of the first subchapter of the page (not the currently open at the page top),
- in the right page headers, it displays the name of the last subchapter of the page (being continued on next page or not)
2/ If there are no headers in the page, it displays the name of the currently opened subchapter of the page.
3/ If there is a very long header, split between two pages : never happened, so spec open...

Weird indeed.

Partial workaround: move the header level 1 in the frame. It works only in the case where there is not another chapter of level 1 before the frame.

That said, I do not see any use case where this layout is required. Please, could you explain why you need to do that ? Traditionally, a frame is used to contains a text that is out of the main text.

Best regards. JBF
