[Asterisk-Users] Music on hold distorted

[Mark Benson]

I installed mpg123.0.59s and that was nasty so installed 0.59r but it 
was still distorted, eventually deleted s and reinstalled r and after a 
few mins the music on hold sorted itself out - it just happend as I was 
testing it after reinstalling - weird - I had looked at the 
phone/asterisk settings but found nothing odd - anyhoo all sorted now.

Cheers,
Mark
