You should be able to override this with an .is_audio_player file.

See http://banshee-project.org/Guide/DAPs/MassStorageDevices for the
details.

That's good info, I suppose, but my player is recognized fine by Rhythmbox and Banshee and supports FLACs. So I'm not sure where transcoding-as-default comes into play. Is this a bug in Rhythmbox or HAL?
