It depends on how you define "default". Applications like Totem will just
auto-install it from the repositories once the gstreamer1-plugin-mpg123 package
lands in the stable repository.

So if you try to launch an MP3 in an application that supports auto-installation
of codecs, it should just prompt you to install it.
