Type 'mpg123' at the Linux CL. (no quotes) If the version is anything other than 59r, you problem is solved. Go to the Wiki and search for Music On Hold. Do the install of version 59r ONLY as described in the docs.

The strange thing about this is that when I have X-Lite configured not to send silence and dial into a queue I hear the queue announcements (every 60 seconds as I've configured) but no MOH, however when I tell it to transmit silence I hear both the announcements and MOH !!! Am I right in thinking that when X-Lite is set not to transmit silence, I shouldn't even hear the announcements ??? Neil. -- Neil A.
