System information

In newer versions of sox (e.g., version 14.3.0, which shipped with
Ubuntu 10.10), the -w option has changed to -2.
Completing file conversion
The resulting file will exist in the /tmp folder (or wherever you uploaded to) and needs
to be copied to the /var/lib/asterisk/moh folder:
$ cp *.sln /var/lib/asterisk/moh
You now need to reload musiconhold in Asterisk in order to have it recognize your new
files:
$ asterisk -rx "module unload res_musiconhold.so"
$ asterisk -rx "module load res_musiconhold.so"
To test that your music is working correctly, add the following to the [UserServices]
context in your dialplan:
exten => 664,1,NoOp()
same => n,Progress()
same => n,MusicOnHold()
Dialing 664 from one of your sets should play a random file from your moh directory.
Conclusion

Asterisk has to offer.
