I should have mentioned before that apparently the MD5 hash is computed 
on the uncompressed raw sample data and the easiest way to check the 
FLAC file is with

   flac --verify audio.flac

--verify won't extract the data to a file, but it does seem to run over 
the entire file (as one would expect of such a function).
