Yes, the standard sox in CentOS/RHEL is compiled without mp3 support.

Asterisk is nothing to do with your problem.

Having lame and lame-devel is good; you will also need libmad and libmad-devel.
But the standard sox doesn't look for them.

You will need to get libmad and libmad-devel from rpmforge, like you
did lame and lame-devel. There might even be a sox package on there
that was compiled with mp3 support. If not, you will need to obtain
the SRPM for sox and recompile it with mp3 support on your system.
That will probably involve editing the spec file to enable mp3.
