You're using an old version of parted or some other partitioning tool. Anything recent for a few years should set the first partition to LBA 2048. So I'd either rebuild the array, or boot from a separate /boot partition which will make linux deal with the array assembly instead of grub, or just not upgrade grub from legacy.

I am not sure what LBA means.  If I rebuilt the partition table with the first partition to LBA 2048 would that look like:
   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1              2048   976768064   488384001   fd  Linux raid autodetect

or maybe
   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sda1              2049   976768064   488384001   fd  Linux raid autodetect
