You can disable the lyrics extension, which is to blame for
modifications to music files. The version of
banshee-extension-lyrics (from banshee-community-extensions) that fixes
this bug is 1.6.1, which is not in Lucid yet. It's been uploaded and
pending approval though.

This same version is available in the Banshee PPA
(https://launchpad.net/~banshee-team/+archive/ppa) if you're impatient.
