That is because MPD 0.13 resolves the name "localhost", and gets two responses (probably 127.0.0.1 and ::1), but it only uses the first one. ncmpc/mpc in turn may use only the other address... You can also work around this by specifying the IPv4 address. This is fixed in the upcoming 0.14 release (pre-releases in Debian experimental, testers welcome). ncmpc 0.12 (to be released this week) contains the same fix on the client side.
