asterisk users - Apr 2004 - Asterisk and SER - choppy sound with G.729

Hi,

We are using Asterisk running on FreeBSD, as IVR / Voicemail for SER. We have
redirected certain calls from SER to *. On * there is some 'testing'
extension. It's simply playing some demo now ;-)

As long as I use plain G.711 the sound is nice. When I switch to G.729 the sound
is choppy, not recognizable. What is going on? Debug shows everything is
normal..

I understand that all jingles / sounds are recorded in gsm format. Maybe I
should try to convert them to g.729, as * is not converting it correctly on the
fly? But I don't see any high-CPU-usage when * is doing this anyway...

I'm using Cisco ATA, or X-pro softphone, so I am aware of
silence-suppression (I have switched it off).

Thank You for any help,
Arek Bekiersz
