It seems when I hit the hold button on the phones, it does trigger the message saying music on hold is starting but it INSTANTLY stops.  I wish it gave some details as to WHY it stops suddenly!  This is driving me nuts.

I was wondering the same thing as my MOH isn't working either in a 
1.2.14 installation so I'm recompiling mpg123 as per:

We know you obviously need to use the "m" flag for the caller to hear 
MOH when dialing an extension, but I wonder if it's required AFTER the 
call has been answered and then put on hold.
