The buffeting action of the solar acoustic waves (p modes) on magnetic fibrils excites magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) tube waves. We model these fibrils as axisymmetric, untwisted, vertically oriented, thin, magnetic-flux tubes. The MHD tube waves propagate along the length of the tube and carry energy away from the p-mode cavity creating a source of p-mode absorption. We calculate the absorption arising from the excitation of sausage MHD waves within a model plage composed of many flux tubes with differing plasma properties. We find that for a collection of tubes with normally distributed plasma parameters β, the macroscopic absorption coefficient of the collection effectively depends on only the mean value of β.
