You need to put the inner command in a pair of extra braces: \defineoverlay [simpleslides:background:horizontal] [{\externalfigure[/Users/graph/Documents/figures/background/ssuwave1][]}] And I would advice to have a look at the directory key of \setupexternalfigures. It is almost always a mistake to have a hard coded path in the code.
