Are the tags correct and is their character encoding specified 
correctly? Sounds like the file names are okay but perhaps there's a 
problem with the metadata. If you take a look at the properties of one 
such track in Rhythmbox and find the file name displayed there, is it 
displayed correctly?

Tracks with both Japanese filenames and metadata show up fine on my 
Ubuntu system. I haven't done anything special apart from perhaps 
installing some fonts, and I definitely haven't touched anything 
specifically in Rhythmbox.
