open in quicktime and export audio as aiff. import audio and video files separately.
FCP can only playback aiff files.
you can also export your mpeg as DV or mov with quicktime and then import it.

note*
make sure you have built in audio in preferences. see the pic

quicktime pro eh?
not just the regular one?

yea, pro. but if you have FCP, quicktime pro is included. if for some reason you don't have one, you have to get the activation code for pro. there is no separate release of quicktime pro as such, its the same free quicktime everybody has, you just need to unlock pro features with serial number.

one more thing, have you tried to open those mpegs in iMovie? I know it sounds strange but sometimes i Movie can do magic over pro.

there is a nice free app for video convertion, called ffmpeg. you can try that too.
