Nov 25, 2014 at 12:08 comment added jmc @ulrich – Thanks for your comment! Would you mind posting it as an answer (together with references to Ribet and Blasius)? Then I can accept it, and therewith mark this question as “Solved”.
Nov 25, 2014 at 3:58 comment added naf I think the work of Ribet on the image of the Galois representation associated to modular forms implies the Mumford-Tate conjecture for the corresponding motives. Blasius has shown that not all these motives are in LCM.

Nov 24, 2014 at 15:37 comment added jmc @SimonPepinLehalleur — Ben Moonen is indeed my advisor. I indeed know of this result, but since there is no reference yet I didn't mention it. And, like you say, it is still based on Kuga–Satake. I totally agree with you that it is a non-trivial variation. However, since I was able to overlook the results of Zhao on AV's of dimension 4 until last week, I wondered if there might be any results that do not go back to AV's. (Btw, the MT-conj is true for the generic variety; since the MT-grp and the Gal-grp are generically both the full symplectic (resp. orthogonal) grp for $i$ odd (resp. even).
Nov 24, 2014 at 14:58 comment added Simon Pepin Lehalleur Ben Moonen (which if I understand correctly is your advisor; this is a comment for onlookers) gave a great talk recently on the Mumford-Tate conjecture for divisors which he can prove for many surfaces with h^{2,0}=1 beyond the K3 case. It is still based on Kuga-Satake, hence at the end of the day Hodge theory for abelian varieties (plus the machinery of Deligne and André on deformation of absolute Hodge/motivated classes). It is still a rather non-trivial variation on the K3 case.
