For example in a CC-BY-NC-SA, one of the most used licenses you can read:

4.d)
If You Distribute, or Publicly Perform the Work or any Adaptations or
Collections, You must, unless a request has been made pursuant to
Section 4(a), keep intact all copyright notices for the Work and
provide, reasonable to the medium or means You are utilizing: [...]

I think it´s reasonable to the medium (the phone music on hold) not to
do the attribution every time.

I think that kind of situations was the reason of that exception to
attribution.
