I go to get Music on Hold working and as with Open Source projects you need to get the little things like MOH working yourself.

If you have the same problem then you probably need to install mpg123.

From the Console logon as root and run the following:

rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/x86_64/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.x86_64.rpm
or if using a non 64bit system then:
rpm -Uhv http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/i386/rpmforge/RPMS/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.i386.rpm
yum install mpg123 sox

mkdir /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3
chown asterisk:asterisk /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3
chmod 755 /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3
cp /var/lib/asterisk/moh/* /var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3/
