This is in reply to my own message, just thought I would answer it so
that if anyone else was having the same issue they could fix it. <br>

Answer: I upgraded to the newest version of Asterisk, recompile,
install, and now I can press the hold button on the phones and hear the
music. This is what one entry in my sip.conf looks like, I am using
ulaw.<br>

newest boot rom and sip ;;;version installed on phones.<br>

Subject: [Asterisk-Users] polycom soundpoint 300 sip phone and hold music
I have an extension setup in my extensions.conf for hold music. ext. 600.
If I pick up a phone (polycom soundpoint 300 sip) and dial extension 600
I hear the hold music playing. If I call another extension and pick it
up and put the call on hold with the hold button on the phone I hear
nothing at all. Does anyone have any experience with these phones and
getting the hold button to work?
