There are a variety of things you can do...the default case suggested by William_Wilson is a great option...or you could also use the isdigit() function to validate that an digit has been entered instead of an alpha character.

I have tried both options with no luck

The problem is that you need to identify the error input before the switch statement. Try the .good() method of the cin operator. It will check to see if an error flags are set..if not, no problem.
Just remember to reset the flags on failure with a cin.clear().
CODE
void showMainMenu()
{
char ch;
int choice;
if ( fullName == "" )
fullName = Getname();
do
{
cout << endl << endl;
cout << "\tWelcome " << fullName << "," << " to Samsung Main menu.\n";
cout << "\tPlease Enter a menu number: 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 to exit.\n";
cout << endl;
cout << "\t1) Movie Menu 2) Music Menu\n";
cout << "\t3) alibi 4) comfort\n";
cout << "\t5) quit\n";
cout << endl << endl;
cout << "\tPlease enter Main Menu option: ";
cin >> choice;
while (!cin.good())
{
cin.clear();
printf("\n\t\a%c[%d;%dmYou entered a letter ", 0x1B, BRIGHT, RED, BG_BLACK);
printf("%c[%dm", 0x1B, 0);
cout << fullName;
printf(", %c[%d;%dmEnter a number from (1 - 4) try agin.\n\n", 0x1B, BRIGHT, RED, BG_BLACK);
