Next time please inform what is the hardware that supports PEBS-via-PT,
I tried this on a:

[    0.245654] smpboot: CPU0: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8650U CPU @ 1.90GHz (family: 0x6, model: 0x8e, stepping: 0xa)
[    0.245791] Performance Events: PEBS fmt3+, Skylake events, 32-deep LBR, full-width counters, Intel PMU driver.

And even after this fix I get:

[root@...co ~]# perf record --kcore -c 10000 -e '{intel_pt/branch=0/,branch-loads/aux-output/ppp}' -I -- ls -l
Error:
branch-loads: PMU Hardware doesn't support sampling/overflow-interrupts. Try 'perf stat'
[root@...co ~]#

Further details:

[root@...co ~]# perf record -vv --kcore -c 10000 -e '{intel_pt/branch=0/,branch-loads/aux-output/ppp}' -I -- ls -l
Using CPUID GenuineIntel-6-8E-A
intel_pt default config: tsc,mtc,mtc_period=3,psb_period=3,pt,branch
Attempting to add event pmu 'intel_pt' with 'branch,' that may result in non-fatal errors
After aliases, add event pmu 'intel_pt' with 'branch,' that may result in non-fatal errors
