Make sure that you are actually _using_ the xine-engine, and not
something else. You can check this in Amarok's configuration dialog ->
Engine.

Other than that, with libxine1-ffmpeg installed, Amarok should play
MP3 (with the xine-engine) just fine. Except if your MP3 have some
weird DRM scheme in them or something.
