I'm guessing that you have been able to convert and burn other mp3 files
with no problem and you are just having this difficulty with two
particular tracks.

Your problem caught my eye because I just got K3B to burn audio disks
this past weekend.  So I haven't found any mp3 files that can't be
converted yet.  My first thought was that you didn't have k3b-mp3
installed.  (Which was my problem.)  However, your subject line (k3b-mp3
0.12.2-0ubuntu2) implies that you do.  But on my machine, Synaptic shows
k3b-mp3 version 0.12.7-1ubuntu1~breezy1 in main.  Does Synaptic (or
apt-get) not offer you the latest version?  Or are you running Hoary?

Hmmm....And are you running Ubuntu or Kubuntu?
