Get some some carpenter's wood glue and a wooden tooth pick. Remove the screw holding the strap button in place. Insert the tooth pick and mark it to determine how long it needs to be. Use a sharp knife and cut it a bit shorter than the mark. Put a bit of wood glue on the piece of tooth pick you cut off and insert it into the screw hole. Now reattach the strap button with the screw... that's all there is to it! The bit of tooth pick reduces the size of the hole, and the wood glue will dry and keep it in place.
