I am trying to send an announcement to the called party using the A(x)
parameter in Dial, however, the message is not being played. There is a
pause between the Dial command being executed and the call being connected
to the calling party of the same length as the announcement .gsm file, but
the message itself is not being played. (I have tried this and timed it with
different announcement files). The problem occurs whatever the called party
technology.
I am running Asterisk version 1.0.8. A typical exten line in extensions.conf
is
exten => s,1,Dial(MGCP/aaln/1@Office,20,mA(${MES}))
where MES is a global variable containing the name of the .gsm file in
/var/lib/asterisk/sounds. Putting the actual name in makes no difference and
the same problem occurs with ZAP and SIP channels.
Does anyone have a solution to this problem? Is there possibly something
wrong with my configuration

I'm using 1.0.8 here and I have no problems using A(x) in my dial strings in either ZAP or SIP channels. -- JP Carballo http://www.netfone2x.com Bringing the world closer. It might look like I'm doing nothing, but at the cellular level, I'm really quite busy.
