[Asterisk-Users] can't get musiconhold to work

I'm using the exact mpg123 binary that you sent me.  When I execute a 
"whereis mpg123" it returns /usr/bin.  To take it a step further I've done 
"whereis mpg321" and "rpm -q mpg321" just to make sure mpg321 is not on 
the system.  The one thing that's confusing the heck out of me is the fact 
that the rpm that I installed seems to have installed in /usr/bin whereas 
everybody else's installed in /usr/local/bin.  Any other ideas?  I'm 
growing very frustrated.
