Not sure but that is what was recommended on Kobo EPUB Guidelines page. Newer firmware may support the meta-property declaration but I have so few fixed layout epubs, I've never bothered to test it.

Edit: Just tested Harry Potter: A Journey Through the History of Magic by the British Library and it displayed without needing the .fxl added to the file name.
