How about using a shell script to simply rename all the mp3 files to
have a leading dot/period - which would make them hidden on Linux/Unix
machines.
Then RB (and other tools) should ignore the mp3 files, and only detect
and play the FLAC files.
I think some programs (including RB?) do this sort of thing themselves
when preparing a transcoded version of a file for export to mp3 players...
