I don't think this is quite correct.
The alignment is specified in bytes, so a vaule of 4 aligms to a 32-bit word boundary.
Alignments should be a power of 2, i.e. 4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512,.., etc.

I understand the Data align is used for aligning the bytes ie., when specified with a value of 2, aligns the symbol to a long word (32-bit) boundary. No other alignment values are accepted.

Strange. I use
#pragma DATA_ALIGN
all the time and haven't ever seen anything like this.
There must be something else going on. The DATA_ALIGN directive is really just a command to the linker to tell it where to place a particular object. It should never affect actual execution. I would check the map files of both builds and see if the align 128 has move the object to somewhere that you don't expect.
