Ok, I'm tearing my hair out trying to get Asterisk moh streaming to work. After several hours jerking around with icecast and muse, I tried to point my asterisk system directly at two streams I know work. This is what extensions.conf has: [default] mode=quietmp3 directory=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3 [stream2] mode=custom directory=/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3-empty

I have searching the forums here on how to get Music On Hold working and I have been able to get * to accept a command for MusicOnHold and for Meetme after loading the ztdummy module. I used the default config for /etc/zaptel.conf since I saw no guidance on this. My problem now is that when I activate MusicOnHold, the sample music file sounds very slow and distorted.

I have an extension setup in my extensions.conf for hold music. ext. 600. If I pick up a phone (polycom soundpoint 300 sip) and dial extension 600 I hear the hold music playing. If I call another extension and pick it up and put the call on hold with the hold button on the phone I hear nothing at all. Does anyone have any experience with these phones and getting the hold button to work?

Does anybody have a good source for hold music? I can see a number of companies on the web that sell royalty-free MOH, but they don't all provide samples.
