You can override it in the ~/.gnuradio/prefs/vmcircbuf_default_factory file.

Just put in there the line (with no newline):

gr::vmcircbuf_createfilemapping_factory


And that will tell the system to use that method of managing the
circular buffers.

Though it's supposed to test to see if your system can handle the
shared memory method first before setting this prefs file. So I guess
there's something different on the ARM that's not being tested for
compliance here.
