I think it does. However, I don't know enough about this to understand
how a file can be both, say, 128kb/s and VBR.

Now I think about it, I *seem* to remember having problems with my SansaClip playing (at least some) VBR MP3 files, so possibly that is the problem. Unfortunately, my SansaClip ended up at the bottom of a puddle, and never worked right again(!!), so I can't test it.....

So, you might want to try something like:

ffmpeg -i int.flac -b:a 128 out.mp3

Although, with CBR, I'd be tempted to go a little higher on the quality - especially with classical music. But I'd try 128 first, to check it solves the playing problem!
