The surface effects of interactions between the solar 5-min p-modes and the large-scale fibril magnetic field are discussed using a multiple scattering approach. Attention is given to the propagation of linear disturbances in a two-dimensional, highly conducting magnetized plasma with many parallel flux tubes in pressure equilibrium with a surrounding stationary field-free plasma. Multiple scattering in the fibril half-space is shown to generate acoustic waves that cascade to ever-smaller length scales. The scale reduction, proportional to the depth into the fibril magnetic field, is responsible for the damping of p-mode oscillations observed in plages.
