use.desc gives the default USE-description, which says it enables
support for reading mp3 files. Hence, (based on what you say) the
useflag is incorrect for mplayer, because it can *always* read
mp3-files.
mplayer should not use mp3 USE-flag, because -mp3 to still have a
mp3-reading capable player feels quite counter-intuitive. It happens to
be that mp3 USE-flag is hooked up to the encode USE-flag -- this is
where it no longer has anything to do with the description from
use.desc.
