How did you modify musiconhold.conf ?? Post the relevent portions. Also, did you install mpg123 or madplay? If you want to use the built-in moh stuff, you have to translate the .mp3 files into .gsm or .wav or something. I found this post that helped me.

you can use native MOH with MP3s - you just need to change your musiconhold.conf

here’s mine, works great, and NO MORE mpg123!!

[default] mode=files directory=/var/lib/asterisk/moh-native

you can change the directory to whereever your music files reside.

aslo do you have a timing source installed ? Are you using any hardware with asterisk. If not did you install ztdummy ?
