Zoom's website reports, "At recording in MP3 with 256kps or VBR, it contains squeaky noise in the result." Not knowing if that included the 320 bps setting, I opted for the WAV mode instead.
The H4 is an amazing little device, nothwithstanding the bug. A software update will be available soon.

The Zoom will record to various MP3 formats (192 kbps, 320 kbps, etc.) too. My guess is that on a live recording with the built-in mics you will hear little or no difference between 16 bit 44.1 kHz WAV and 320 kbps MP3. And you'll get hundreds of hours of recording time with the MP3 format.
