Hello, (funny, in your reply mail my quoted garbled text shows up fine....)
Ah, I see... well, I am using ncmpp as a client and that displays the weird text when I load the music directories. I noticed a configuration file (.ncmpcpp/config) for the client that has a system_encoding option. If I change that from utf-8 to iso-8859-1 it still displays weird text though, as if it was not reading the config file... At any rate this was very clarifying, thanks!
