[Asterisk-Users] Too high volume on Music on Hold

[Jason Lixfeld]

Ran into this myself.  Portage has a depend for mpg123 but it  
installs the one that's also in portage.  The one in portage is  
broken (read:  it doesn't work well with Asterisk).  I avoid portage  
when it comes to anything asterisk related.  I build from source.   
The asterisk source has mpg123 included in the distribution, and that  
version works fine.

Not using the mpg123 included in the asterisk source will lead to  
various issues such as the one you are describing.
