If you want to share the exact itinerary, someone here might be able to look into the inventory problem.
The bottom line is going to be some sort of issue with the non-UA flights not posting correct inventory to the United website; the information transfer isn't perfect and when trying to ticket it will actually go out and get LH to confirm.
