The Album name needs to be the same for all the files, and the files need to live in the same directory.

Since m4a is of type Video, and flac is of type Audio, you'll need to either configure one of the current Audio view schemes to allow both Media Types, or create your own customized view.  It sounds like you might have already done this, but if not, reply back and somebody will explain how.  Both are easy enough to do.

My apologies - I thought it was video, but not see that it was an audio format defined in the mpeg4-14 spec.

Look at a tag dump of 1 of the FLAC files and 1 of the m4a files.  Take note of the exact name of Album.

If this doesn't help, please share a screenshot of the problem.
