You can create a new backup group with zero retention.
(I can't remember, but you might have to leave versions exist at 1)
Rebind the files to the new group
Exclude *.MP3 (Etc)
Include *.MP3 newbackupgroup
run backup.
after backup has completed, remove the include and leave the exclude.

How can I drop backups of files on servers that have already been backed up?
Our policy has changed. We are no longer backing up *.MP3 and *.WAV files.
Is there a way I can get them to expire on all my backups? Even for one
server at a time?
I doubt it, but curious.
