It seems that this extra attribute needs to not be treated as temperature. I have patched libatasmart to do this. Please try the version in my ppa and see if it resolves it for you. You can add my ppa by running sudo add-apt-repository ppa:psusi/ppa, then an apt-get update and upgrade should install the new version of libatasmart.
