Daniel,
your problem sounds strange to me. I never had such issues.
I know, though, that Cinelerra can have problems reading mp3 files with
variable bitrate (usually performing unreliable seeking).
In this case I create a table of contents (TOC) file, then load on the
timeline the .toc file instead of the .mp3 file.
To create the TOC file I use the following command (adapt it to your
case, giving the full path to the .mp3 file first myfile.mp3 and then
the full path to the TOC file to be created myfile.toc):
mpeg3toc -v myfile.mp3 myfile.toc
I'm not sure this is your solution but it might be worth trying.

You give me no information enough to understand if you already know that
they are not supposed to show up in the timeline unless they are put in
the timeline by drag and drop from the resources windows or by loading
them with an appropriate insertion strategy (the last field of the Load
dialog).
If you are new to Cinelerra, you might want to try to get support
through the #cinelerra IRC channel on Freenode. It's easier, sometimes.
Ciao
Raffaella
