Involved as a surprise for Maisie Williams more than anything else, Sheeran wasn't placed in the background of a scene or obscured by a large helmet, he was a character with speaking (and singing) lines.

Whether it was the lingering shot of his face or the fact Arya commented on his singing, Sheeran's cameo was the worst case of immersion breaking in the show's history, coffee cup not withstanding. You'll never be sucked out of the story faster than seeing a pop star dressed in Lannister armour chilling with Arya Stark.

The amount of attention the scene draws to Sheeran's presence is distracting and is the most out of place encounter on Game of Thrones.
