From the Stake Pool Operators telegram group:

I got that error too. The problem was in the payment.addr . Because that file has the enterprise addres but not the public address

My understanding is that --time-to-live refers to a slot number until which the transaction is valid. I used the slotNo result from cardano-cli query tip --mainnet plus 2000 or so.

cardano-cli query tip --mainnet
{
    "blockNo": 5081332,
    "headerHash": "132cd56e3e4ddce4c10f06f0315932133e0736eacb952ba2d5372e36628262a1",
    "slotNo": 16481737 <-- add some margin to this
}

The payment address is just used to pay for the transaction so as long as it has funds, it should be OK. The change also goes to payment.addr.
