You have been subscribed to a public bug:

If there is music in a directory other than ~/Music, and that directory is then mounted with
"mount --bind" to ~/Music/mountedmusic, those songs are not shown in music scope.
It would be important that music app had the priviliges to read these directories too, mainly because the music from the android userdata could also be mounted under ~/Music for the music app. This would be a nice step towards the using Ubuntu Touch dual-boot-installed nexto to android.
Same goes for Video scopes and Gallery app.

EDIT: Symbolic links do not work either.
