I'll try to look into that. Thank you for the report.

Here is one thing you can do. Put this in your init file:
(defun rriley-start-mplayer-playlist-player
(file-name &optional extra-arguments)
(let ((bongo-mplayer-extra-arguments '("-playlist")))
(funcall 'bongo-start-mplayer-player file-name extra-arguments)))
(add-to-list 'bongo-backends 'rriley-mplayer-playlist t)
(put 'rriley-mplayer-playlist 'bongo-backend
'(rriley-mplayer-playlist
(constructor . rriley-start-mplayer-playlist-player)
(pretty-name . "mplayer with `-playlist'")))
Then use C-u RET to play the track that needs `-playlist' and
choose your custom player from the list.
It would be nice to handle this out-of-the-box, though. Thanks for
the report.
Hope this helps,
