I don't think it's that, at all.
The topic was brought up because they wanted to move the discussion from Walk and his gambling. Walt Jr was the one who brought up "that case you're looking at, with that crazy singing guy". Hank then starts talking about Gale, and the camera focuses on Walt the entire time, at this point it's just Hank doing his thing, talking about a cop story. Walk then gets annoyed, more so as the story goes on. He gets arrogant and interjects himself into the conversation because he's been knocking back the wine pretty heavily at this point.
Hank was just telling a story he was asked about, Walt's ego got the best of him.
