When I connect to various asterisk services such as VoicemailMain(), MeetMe() as examples, I do not get to hear the first greeting messages. I've tried adding a Wait(1) before or after the application but this seems to have no effect. Is there another setting/parameter I can play with to delay the start of the playback of these messages?

We had the same problem with a number of SNOM phones. After we did an update to the current firmware version, we heard the beginning of the messages, too.

Another solution that works for me is to add "Playback(silence/1)" just before whatever you are about to do. Something about the playback command opens the channel up. -Brent Sherwood McGowan wrote:> Alan Lord wrote: > >> Sherwood McGowan wrote: >> <snip /> >> >> >>>> >>>> >>>> >>> Hrm...I have encountered this before and sometimes doing an explicit >>> Answer() then a Wait(2), then calling the service can help. >>> >>> Hope this is helpful >>> >>> Sherwood McGowan >>> >>> >>> >> Bingo! >> >> Thanks a bunch.
