I posted a request about this at miktex-us...@lists.sourceforge.net.
Ulrike Fischer says:

   1. Normally a missing map-file doesn't trigger the on-the-fly
   installation, but you added a reference to musix.map to a local
   config.ps and this probably forces miktex/dvips to find the map.

   2. It sometimes happens that miktex wants to install a file that
   already exists in the system. Reasons can  be:

   a) the file is in the completly wrong place and so not in the search
   path.

   b) The FNDB of the root has not been updated correctly (did you do
   it in user AND admin mode??)

   c) the file is in the search path but not in the place where miktex
   expects it when looking at the on-the-fly database. Then it can
   happen that miktex triggers the on-the-fly installation too early
   (before having gone throught the complete search path).

   In your case miktex is looking for the file in

     fonts\map\dvips\musixtex\musix.map

   but it has been installed

     \dvips\config

   So my guess is the user ran against c).

   I would at first move the map to
   %ROOT%\fonts\map\dvips\musixtex\musix.map, update the FNDBs and
   then try again.
