thanks for reporting this.

AFAIK, the language of an ODT document is set through the document
style.  When exporting from Org, that would be OrgOdtStyles.xml :

https://code.orgmode.org/bzg/org-mode/src/master/etc/styles/OrgOdtStyles.xml#L20

You can use your own style (see the manual) but you are right that
this is independent from setting the langage through #+LANGUAGE.

HTH,
