The Avisynth provider always uses DirectShowSource. I don't think a dshow flac source filter exists, so what happens is probably that it falls back on FFMS2, resulting in the same behavior no matter which provider you set in the settings.
FFMS2 in turn seems to have problems with it, no idea why. It works if you remux it to MKV (or, well, MKA, strictly speaking), so it might be a libavformat bug. Who knows. I'll poke Myrsloik about it.

I've experimented with latest test build (r4089, TheFluff) and found next things. I installed madFlac dshow source filter and decoder. AVS script with single string "DirectShowSource("canaan.flac")" works and Aegisub successfully loads audio from it. But Aegisub still fails trying load it directly. MessageBox screenshot with error attached. Russian text says: "Unable to play file. Format is unsupported".
