I have the same problem but it takes it one step further. I used a Unicode character \
in the Artist name field and let Amarok 1.4.4 write the filename. It both wrote the \
filename incorrectly (not in Unicode) and could not re-read the file it had just \
written. Steps to recreate the problem.
(I'm using Xubuntu Edgy Eft, with Amarok 1.4.4, MySQL UTF-8 Database)
1) Add an OGG Vorbis file to the playlist (you can play it to test that it works)
 1a) Right click on the file and choose 'edit track information'
2) Change the Artist field to José Nuñez 
 2a) (if the bug tracking system doesn't show Unicode I've written Jos(e-forward \
accent) Nu(spanish-nnya [n with a tilde])ez. 3) Right Click on the file and choose \
File Administration... Organize File 4) I've left the default options as installed on \
for file organization.  4a) collection folder /media/nfs/Music
 4b) Use cover art as icon (OFF)
 4c) Ignore 'the' in the artists name (ON)
 4d) File Naming Convention Custom (ON)
 4c) %folder/%filetype/%initial/%albumartist/%album{ (Disc %discnumber)}/{[%track] \
}%artist - %title.%filetype  4d) the rest of the options (OFF)
5) Click OK
6) Rightclick on the file in amarok and choose Edit Track Information
7) click on the folder icon next to the full path of the file
8) a file manager opens (doesn't really matter which one, I tried with both Konqueror \
and Thunar.  8a) You will see that Amarok has turned the unicode charachters ñ \
(nnya) and é into diamonds with question-marks or some other illegible gobbledygook. \
9) Close the 'edit track information dialog' 10) Play the file
11) Amarok shows a Toaster "File not in collection"
12) It is possible to drag the file from Thunar to Amarok and it will play. AND \
Amarok shows the correct unicode character in the Artist field.  13) Yet it is \
impossible to add the file to the collection or search for the file. \
