We have carried out a coupled-channel ({pi}{pi},{ital K{bar K}}) analysis of the effects of final-state interactions on the branching ratios for the decay modes of a light Higgs boson. We find no large enhancement of {ital H}{r arrow}{pi}{pi} relative to {ital H}{r arrow}{mu}{bar {mu}} for {ital m}{sub {ital H}}{lt}950 MeV.
