I agree with @Atair that your flac files may be wonky. In normal circumstances, ffmpeg does not get involved with flac files because mpd as compiled for moOde includes its own flac decoder.
Here's a snippet from my mpd log when updating (e.g., adding) some flac tracks, including the Stereo Test track and a test track from Atair:
Those lines in your output which show files with names beginning with dot-underscore suggest the files came from an OS X system. In Linux (and maybe in OS X too? I don't use it), files with names beginning with a dot are hidden by default. They are not a problem per se but they will cause duplicate tracks to appear in your Library. You can direct mpd to ignore them (using the .mpdignore convention; see other posts on this forum).
Here, for example, is what I get if I create a dot-underscore version of the ff-16b-2c-44100hz.flac file shown about and update the Library:
No problem, but my Library listing now shows two copies of the same track.
So, back to your Aerosmith tracks. Try running the commands "file" and/or "mediainfo" on them to see what Linux thinks they contain.
Example (note that a dot-underscore file won't show up unless you take a little extra care):
where the Audio Format stanza is the important one here.
