Hello, "show application dial" says: 'A(x)' -- play an announcement to the called party, using x as file Does this actually work? I have tried it a couple of times and cannot get it to function as described. This is what I wish to accomplish: 1) Client calls into my pbx, dials my extension. 2) I am not at my desk, and call hits my voicemail. 3) The Client presses "*" during my unavailable message and the call goes out to my cellphone. 4) Because the callerid on the outgoing call from my pbx was set to the caller id of the original incoming call, I can't tell if the client called my pbx first and was transferred, or if they just called my cell phone directly. The "A" option looks like I can use that to play a file back to me after I answer my phone telling me that they originally called into my pbx. I have 1-3 working perfectly, but 4 does not seem to work? Is it possible, and would the dial "A" option work? -- Kristian Kielhofner

Is it > possible, and would the dial "A" option work?yes, I doublechecked it now, and is ok: for example : [iax-inbound] exten => console,1,Dial(Console/dsp,,A(tt-weasels)) I can hear tt-weasels when I answer the console. note the double period, since the dial format is Dial(chan,timeout,options) and no timeout was specified here, so you must put a double period.
