Default customer queue: queue hold message and music

This default flow is played when a customer is placed in a queue.

  1. The loop has a one-time voice prompt:

    Thank you for calling. Your call is very important to us and will be answered in the order it was received.

  2. It plays queue music in .wav format that's been uploaded to the Amazon Connect instance.

  3. The customer remains in this loop until their call is answered by an agent.
