lnd: Failed to open channel with error: "unmatched backend error: -26: mempool min fee not met"

Background

Failed to open channel. Before I try to abandon the channel I thought I would open a ticket first in case it’s an interesting case.

Your environment

0.15.0-beta

Steps to reproduce

2022-07-13 23:37:44.365 [INF] FNDG: Broadcasting funding tx for ChannelPoint(0d9b20f996b6abd0d1e4a512ca9ee35591918d874db47b72c6c7b9f431ef1f0e:1): 020.... 2022-07-13 23:37:44.365 [INF] LNWL: Inserting unconfirmed transaction 0d9b20f996b6abd0d1e4a512ca9ee35591918d874db47b72c6c7b9f431ef1f0e 2022-07-13 23:37:44.378 [ERR] FNDG: Unable to broadcast funding tx 020... for ChannelPoint(0d9b20f996b6abd0d1e4a512ca9ee35591918d874db47b72c6c7b9f431ef1f0e:1): unmatched backend error: -26: mempool min fee not met, 430 < 1450

Expected behaviour

Channel should open. I opened it with thunderhub and used 1sat/vB.

Actual behaviour

Channel is stuck opening and TXNID is not pubished to the mempool

note added: abandonchannel is a dangerous command and can lead to loss of funds if used incorrectly - ask in the LND slack channel if unsure

Can I run lncli abandonchannel --funding_txid 0d9b20f996b6abd0d1e4a512ca9ee35591918d874db47b72c6c7b9f431ef1f0e --output_index 1 to recover my funds or do you want me to check something? Or should I recover my funds with a different command?
