Transcoding FLAC: mp3fs on 6.7.4 -- can't mount mp3fs from fstab anymore, only via mp3fs command

There was an old thread on installing mp3fs on OS 4 which involved installing from source.  I've been able to install mp3fs it successfully on OS 6.0-6.6.1 using apt-get, but this 6.7.4 stuff is a little more troubling.

Enabled SSH.  Went in and installed mp3fs.

root@mydevice:~# apt-get install mp3fs

After that, I modified the fstab to include the mp3fs mountpoint I'd setup:

mp3fs#/data/Music/FLAC/ /data/mp3fs fuse allow_other,ro,bitrate=192 0 0

This worked flawlessly in OS 4 and the earlier OS 6 versions.  A simple "mount -a" or a reboot and the filesystem was mounted without problem.  Under OS 6.7.4, if I try a "mount -a" I receive the following:

root@mydevice:/data# mount -a
mount: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock on mp3fs#/data/Music/FLAC/,
       missing codepage or helper program, or other error

       In some cases useful info is found in syslog - try
       dmesg | tail or so.

The only way I can mount the FS is with a:

root@mydevice:/data# mp3fs -b 192 /data/Music/FLAC /data/mp3fs -o allow_other,ro
root@mydevice:/data# mount | grep mp3fs
/data/mp3fs on /data/mp3fs type fuse.mp3fs (ro,nosuid,nodev,noatime,nodiratime,user_id=0,group_id=0,allow_other)
root@mydevice:/data#

How can I get mp3fs to mount from fstab or with the mount command? What changed in OS 6.7.4?

I know it's not officially supported, so any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Vijay
