asterisk users - Apr 2005 - Playback dosen't play Playtone(Congestion) does ?

Hi All, What would keep Asterisk from playing out audio files (Playback 
command) but I can play the busy tone . playtone(Congestion)  ??  I have 
verified this with ethereal and see the audio only going one way.  
Because I can hear the audio with the play tone I know there is 
something preventing the playback from working.

Thanks

Are you seeing anything in your /var/log/asterisk/messages file or even on
the console with verbosity at 3 or more? I'm guessing you have a path or
permissions problem, but you should see either in the logs or the console.

  I see all log files.  Sip debug is on so I see it wanting to play the 
file.  I'm the root. I was thinking path but but I tested it by changing 
the name to something wrong. The call went right to and error tone. 
When It's correct it's just silence.  The tones are not in the same 
directory as the sounds. Asterisk knows the directory.  I will look at 
the log file.  I have looked at the asterisk.conf  docs. and I can't 
find the Variable need the to put in for the sound files path. Example 
below is my asterisk.conf file. I would like to force it to the correct 
directory.

  [directories]
astetcdir => /etc/asterisk
astmoddir => /usr/lib/asterisk/modules
astvarlibdir => /var/lib/asterisk
astagidir => /var/lib/asterisk/agi-bin
astspooldir => /var/spool/asterisk
astrundir => /var/run/asterisk
astlogdir => /var/log/asterisk
