Yes i know. Some weeks ago it was functioning perfectly but since some
days it was wrong.

My moh.conf (for mpg123):
[default]
mode=quietmp3
directory=/usr/share/asterisk/mohmp3
random=yes

And if i want use the integrated mp3 support of asterisk :
[default]
mode=files
directory=/usr/share/asterisk/mohmp3
random=yes


For me it's more a usage of the mpg123 that asterisk pause or a timer
problem. Because my configuration functioned before. I don't know if
this is a kernel update (i use the default kernel of debian and
disable acpi for the zdummy driver) could do this kind of problem.

So when i hang-up again a call and recall my extension with
musiconhold it restart at the moment when it was stopped with mpg123 /
madplay and at the beginning of a random sound with native mp3.
