Please make sure you have all necessary codecs installed, most distribution don't ship these codecs by default for legal reasons. Else, ask your distribution where to find these codecs.

It definitely works here.

I can confirm that this is a bug.

I CAN play .m4a files in Amarok, but it will NOT list them in the file browser.

I have faad2 installed, on the following system

kernel 3.3
openSUSE 12.1 (x86_64)
KDE 4.7.2

Amarok 2.4.3
