In musiconhold.conf (in /etc/asterisk usually) you would put:

default => /var/lib/asterisk/moh-native,r

And then fill that directory with the files.  That way the default music on
hold will be native files.

You can test with an extension like:

exten => 511,1,Answer()
exten => 511,2,MusicOnHold()
