asterisk users - Oct 2009 - MOH

I am having a strange problem with MOH.  Say I have two users, A and B.  I
can set MOH in the extension for B and if A calls B and B hits hold, A will
hear B's hold music.  If however A hits hold, it goes to the default music.
If I pull the setmusiconhold from extensions.conf and use musicclass in
sip.conf under the peer A, I get the same thing.  Peer A has musicclass set
and A calls B and B hits hold, A hears their own music that was specified
and B hears the default.  I can't find any way to call someone, put them on
hold and have them hear my music, I can hear what they specify, but I can't
specify what they hear (this is all assuming calls are within the same *
box).  Any ideas how to set that?

This is what 'mohsuggest' is for; if you don't specify musicclass
for
any of your endpoints, but instead specify mohsuggest, then when that
endpoint places another endpoint on hold, the endpoint that is placed on
hold will hear the MOH 'suggested' by the endpoint that put them on
hold.
