Issue with Unicode Cuesheets

It seems that cuesheets using non-ASCII characters fail when trying to find the specified audio file. I'm not sure if this applies to all non-ASCII sets, but in my case I had a cuesheet with Japanese characters and it failed with "Unable to open item for playback (Object not found)." If I rename the audio file to something ASCII-only and edit the cuesheet, it finds the audio file, but the metadata (which was also in Japanese) is garbled. Here's an example cuesheet I was using:

Code: [Select]
REM DISCID 0C02D002
REM COMMENT "ExactAudioCopy v1.3"
PERFORMER ""
TITLE "青春ブタ野郎はバニーガール先輩の夢を見ない 1 特典CD"
REM COMPOSER ""
FILE "青春ブタ野郎はバニーガール先輩の夢を見ない 1 特典CD.flac" WAVE
  TRACK 01 AUDIO
    TITLE "桜島麻衣 (瀬戸麻沙美) - 不可思議のカルテ"
    PERFORMER "桜島麻衣（CV：濑户麻沙美）"
    REM COMPOSER ""
    ISRC JPE301801399
    INDEX 01 00:00:00
  TRACK 02 AUDIO
    TITLE "ドラマ - 心の内"
    PERFORMER ""
    REM COMPOSER ""
    ISRC JPE301801400
    INDEX 00 03:57:15
    INDEX 01 04:02:15

This is on foobar 1.5.1. Thanks for any help.

Save the cue sheet in UTF-8 encoding.
