I have WMA files working on my iphone now. I had to do 2 things. First change the Import Settings in iTunes and uninstall and reinstall the OverDrive Media Console. You need 3.2.0.6 version and I had 3.2.0.5. Only way I could update is to uninstall and reinstall.
I am not sure if both is needed since I changed the import settings first and then figured I needed the newer versioin of the console.
To change import settings:
import settings in iTunes and
transfer the title again.
1. In iTunes, go to Edit | Preferences….
2. On the 'General' tab, select the 'Import Settings…' button.
3. In the 'Import Using' field, select 'AAC Encoder'.
4. In the 'Setting' field, select 'Spoken Podcast'.
5. Click the 'OK' button to apply changes and close the 'Import Settings'
dialog box.
6. Click the 'OK' button to close the iTunes Preferences dialog box.

This is something I am working on for our library. I downloaded a WMA file and iTunes converts it giving a message like "Converting 3345. The next chapter says "Converting 4356" etc. Very strange. If I write down one of these numbers I can search on the iPhone for it and find that chapter - sometimes. I cannot find the audiobook anywhere on my iphone looking through the music app. MP3 files work through the app, but so much of what I want and are customers want are WMA formats.
I wil let you kow if I find out anything. OverDrive claims they have this fixed with their updated app and media center, but I still can't get it to work. I have someone else at work testing it.

You need to have overdrive on the iPhone/pad to read/listen even though
iTunes is used to get them onto the device they show up in overdrive.
