asterisk users - Nov 2003 - strange Music on Hold between SNOM, Grandstream and Asterisk

Hi List,

Here is the config

ext 2601  is a GS BT-101 phone  
ext 2062  is a SNOM 200

latest public firmware on both

asterisk is Asterisk CVS-11/14/03-22:55:45


Make a call from 2601 -> 2602  life good, call works

have 2602 place call on hold.  The music on 2601 IS NOT
my music on hold.  It seems its a MOH server SNOM has.

take call off of hold on 2602 and  2601 still trys to 
play parts of the music from SNOM's server.


Make a call from 2601 -> 2602 life good, call works

have 2601 place call on hold, SNOM plays my music but
its real choppy and doesn't  play well.


have two GS's call each other and MOH works, not choppy,
etc.


So questions are:

1.  how do you get the SNOM to use Asterisk as the MOH source ?

2.  how does one get the music to not be choppy when a GS places
    a SNOM on hold

I have the exact problem with a little different configuration.
I am using GS phones and a sip/fxo gateway.
I make a call from PSTN <==> sip/fxo gateway <==> * <==> sip
phone (GS).
Life is good until GS places call on hold.
What I see on the wire:

1 - RTP packets every 20msec both directions for a second or 2.
2 - Then 2-3 second pause.
3 - Then a few RTCP packets.
4 - then back to 1

Are you using ztdummy?
