asterisk users - Jun 2007 - Music on hold 1.2

What is a good solution for playing music on hold on the 1.2 branch.  I do not
want to use mpg123 because last time I used it in a production server it caused
many problems.   The MPG123 process was taking about 60% of my Xeon CPU.

For minimum system resource usage, convert your MP3 files into the
same codec as most of your users' phones are set to (alaw/ulaw
perhaps), and read the musiconhold.conf file for details of how to use
them.
