[asterisk-users] Is MOH Still Broken in Asterisk 1.4 (beta3)?

[Douglas Garstang]

I'm wondering if moh is still broken in Asterisk 1.4 beta3. In Asterisk 1.2, when a callee put a caller on hold, the musiconhold class that was played was not the one the callee wanted the caller to hear, but something else. Even after using mohsuggest in Asterisk 1.4, it still appears that this is not working correctly.

Here's the results of a simple test:

CASE CALLER     CALLEE     HOLDER     HOLDER HEARS MOH
------------------------------------------------------
1    3254101    3254102    3254101    moh1
2    3254101    3254102    3254102    default

3    3254102    3254101    3254102    moh2
4    3254102    3254101    3254101    default

For each extension, I have mohsuggest set. Test cases 1 and 3, where the caller puts the callee on hold, yield the expected behaviour. However, test cases 2 and 4 where the callee puts the caller on hold, do not yield the correct results.

Here's what the results SHOULD be.

CASE CALLER     CALLEE     HOLDER     HOLDER HEARS MOH
------------------------------------------------------
1    3254101    3254102    3254101    moh1
2    3254101    3254102    3254102    moh2

3    3254102    3254101    3254102    moh2
4    3254102    3254101    3254101    moh1

Am I possibly doing something wrong with mohsuggest?
