Yes...they behave normally everywhere except LMS...and even there they
play, they just won't go into the library. I'm used to the opposite,
where LMS is the most reliable option while everything else is iffy!

I may be doing it wrong (in fact, obviously I AM doing it wrong!), but
that's what I'm attempting. I just want a standard audio-only .m4a
file.

I went with a very simple:
Code:
--------------------
ffmpeg -i 'infile.mp4' -c copy outfile.m4a
--------------------

Good idea! https://www.dropbox.com/s/ww59fqf7retp191/DIY.m4a?dl=0 is the
audio from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C4Fu2MF8hcs. (And yes, I'm
going to just buy the record now that I see I can get it for a
reasonable price via Discogs.)
It seems likely that all I need to do is find the right set of options
on the ffmpeg command line, but looking at the extensive documentation
last night made my tiny little brain hurt. I'm pretty sure that a big
part of the problem is that what ffmpeg calls "metadata" and you refer
to more correctly as the file structure is being carried over from the
video file. I theoretically know how to override that, I just don't know
what values I need to use, if that makes any sense.
Thank you for your suggestions!
Worst case, given that everything else is happy with the file, I can
just convert to FLAC and waste a relatively microscopic amount of
storage space.
