I already posted about this, but contrary to what is stated on the Wiki, mpg123 is required (at least in 1.2.x) if you wish to use mp3's for your MoH.

The OP is looking to play MP3s, and unless I misunderstood the instructions on the Wiki, addons is required (format_mp3) to play MP3's on 1.2.x. Is that not the case?
