I'm certainly not an expert on MOH, but I don't believe there are any 
volume control knobs to be tweaked in asterisk itself. You might want to 
take a look at the configs/musiconhold.conf.sample file as there were 
some parameters that impacted high/med/quiet modes, but I'm thinking 
they only applied to the old mpg123 music app. Could easily be wrong.

Best guess... probably have to use something like sox to change the 
volume of the mp3 (or whatever) file itself.
