You need some plugins and codecs to play those files. Open your terminal and type pr copy and paste:

sudo apt-get ubuntu-restricted-extras

sudo wget --output-document=/etc/apt/sources.list.d/medibuntu.list http://www.medibuntu.org/sources.list.d/$(lsb_release -cs).list && sudo apt-get --quiet update && sudo apt-get --yes --quiet --allow-unauthenticated install medibuntu-keyring && sudo apt-get --quiet update

# For 32 bit:

sudo apt-get install w32codecs libdvdcss2

# For 64 bit:

sudo apt-get install w64codecs libdvdcss2

please install gstreamer0.10-plugina-ugly-multiverse
this can be searched in synaptic and install from there your mp3 problems will be over whether recording in mp3 format or playback...This is tested by me and is working fine.
Thanks
