Please post the exact error messages you got from the loadPdb step.

We should emphasize to new users the most common approach: you do indeed
create a single pdb file with all the protein/lipid/ligand/etc groups,
then use solvateOct on that. And, you need to keep editing the pdb file
until LEaP stops complaining. I understand that the error and warning
messages may be hard to understand, which is why I am asking to see them.

I agree that this ought to work as well, although it is far less common as an
approach. Are the coordinates of p and l in the output incprd file the same
ones as in protein.pdb and ligand.pdb? If so, this indeed sounds like a bug;
if you can post a (small) example showing the problem, we can take a look at
it.
