pqlib large object error

I am writing some proof-of-concept code for a project which involves
using PostgreSQL's large object facility to store audio data. Currently,
the goal for this code is to test the performance of reading audio data
from a file and writing it to a large object. I am learning as I go, but
I cannot seem to figure this error message out:

ERROR:  duplicate key value violates unique constraint "pg_largeobject_loid_pn_index"

I am using the following code to create the large object:
		lo_1 =  lo_creat(connect1, INV_READ|INV_WRITE);
		if (lo_1 > 0) {
			... (open and write)
		} else {
			fprintf (stderr, "Unable to create large object: %s\n", PQerrorMessage(connect1));
		}

where connect1 is the pointer to my connection. Why is there a duplicate key if lo_creat() is supposed to assign an unused OID?

Thanks,
Edward
