This is currently working on a custom post type for me.

/**
 * Front end creation of new download
 * @author  Mike Hemberger
 * @link http://thestizmedia.com
 * @uses Advanced Custom Fields Pro
 */
add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'jivedig_newdownload_pre_save_post' );
function jivedig_newdownload_pre_save_post( $post_id ) {

	// check if this is to be a new post
    if( $post_id != 'new' ) {
        return $post_id;
    }

    // Create a new post
    $post = array(
		'post_status' => 'publish',
		'post_title'  => $_POST['acf']['field_5483b32a04842'], // beat_title
		'post_type'   => 'download',
    );

    // insert the post
    $post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );

	// update $_POST['return']
    $_POST['return'] = add_query_arg( array('post_id' => $post_id), $_POST['return'] );

    // return the new ID
    return $post_id;

}
