And who would they give this money to?

Option one: No one, they are going to keep it.

Option two: To the artists in heavy rotation in the country at the
time.

AFAIK, those options are what happens with money collected from foreign
music.

Wouldn't that go for local music as well if the local music was being used in
a similar manner?

For the local music, the local artists have the possibility to get some money from the licensing organization if they are members, so in the local case the money goes to whom it belongs (in the broad statistical sense).
