I thought I share this one, just in case this is an indication of some bug ...
When I was trying to use music on hold at first, I didn't bother to copy any music into /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 since there was a sample-
hold.mp3 in there which played just fine in a standalone MP3 player.
But after uncommenting one of the lines in musiconhold.conf and doing reload on the console, there was only silence when putting a caller on hold. Somebody told me I may have the wrong mp3 app (321 vs 123) while I was getting busy with something else and so I put this aside. Although I found that I did have mpg123 installed.
Yesterday, I copied some music files into /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 in anticipation that I would get this to work eventually and to my surprise, putting a caller on hold now plays the music. I have no idea why it didn't work at first, but it would seem that for some unknown reason, Asterisk didn't like the sole sample-hold.mp3 file.
