exten => did,1,Answer
exten => did,n,Playtones(ring)
exten => did,n,Wait(10)
exten => did,n,StopPlaytones()
exten => did,n,BackGround(sound file)
did = the DID number as presented and note the '1' before Answer.
This works for me.
exten => 820055,1,Answer()
exten => 820055,n,PlayTones(ring)
exten => 820055,n,Wait(5)
exten => 820055,n,StopPlayTones()
exten => 820055,n,[do something interesting from now on]
That's my DID (820055) being answered first and then waiting for 5
seconds. I use it for fax detect this way.

Subject: [asterisk-users] Ringing for incoming call
Dear All,
I am using Asterisk 1.4 on CentOS 5. I have an incoming DID provided by
Vitelity. When the number is called it goes to my Asterisk box. The
protocol is SIP. This all works just fine if I answer the call and
begin a playback.
I want to let the number ring for a few seconds before it is answered,
and would like the caller to hear it ringing. I have tried:
...
exten => s,n,Answer
exten => s,n,Playtones(ring)
exten => s,n,Wait(10)
exten => s,n,StopPlaytones()
exten => s,n,BackGround(sound file)
...
also
...
exten => s,n,Answer
exten => s,n,Ringing()
exten => s,n,Wait(10)
exten => s,n,BackGround(sound file)
...
I have also tried moving the Answer app to right before the BackGround
app.
In all cases when I call the number I never hear it ringing. After the
10 second delay, the BackGround app does run. Connecting to the CLI
does not give me any useful information - for example the Ringing app is
shown to run, but the caller does not hear it.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks!
