Wait, scratch that, it shouldn't be using "loadlist" for mp3 files,
it looks like this specific check returns t for that file in your case:

  (memq (emms-track-get track 'type) '(streamlist playlist))

(which sets track-is-playlist to t and hence emms-player-mpv.el tries
to use "loadlist" command for it instead of "loadfile".

I'll check for changes in that regard, maybe "type" gets set
differently for tracks these days, and get back to you.
