I don't know if you have noticed an abnormal behavior when trying to use
the -b option but occasionally mpg321 crashes, stops playing the song,
plays the song
without syncing with the second process that outputs the song or the
reverse. Never starts
playing an mp3 file or crashes when someone tries to play a file that is
not an mp3. All those situations
does not happen when you are not using -b option. I am trying to solve the
problem but I haven't figured
where the fault is. So I prefer to silently as you say ignore the -b
option and preserve the package
in the previous state, so to provide a stable version that won't make
problems to users or other packages
that try or might use this new feature.

I will fix that and re-upload the package.

Haven't noticed that, I will fix it.

I will fix that also.
