Summary:                    When originating a call from a meetme room, the
ringback is not heard in the meetme room
Description: 
meetme.conf
-------------

[rooms]
conf => 600


extensions.conf
-----------------


[default]
exten => 100,1,Answer
exten => 100,n,MeetMe(600,1q)
exten => 100,n,Hangup

exten => 101,1,Dial(SIP/phone1)
exten => 101,n,Hangup

exten => 102,1,Dial(ZAP/1)
exten => 102,n,Hangup

I have a TDM400P with 4 FXOs and also some SIP users (phone1, phone2) all
bounded to the "default" context.

If I dial 100 using any of the phones I enter the meetme room. While in
the meetme room I give Asterisk the following command using the Asterisk
manager:

Action: Originate
Channel: Local/100 at default
Context: default
Exten: 101 (or 102)
Priority: 1


At this moment the other party's phone starts ringing, but the users in
the meetme room can not hear the ringback. If the call is answered, only
then the first user from the meetme room can hear the called party.

I have tried all sorts of combinations using "r" parameter in Dial, or
using Answer and Ringing applications, but I couldn't hear the ringback in
the meetme room while initiating a call as described above.

Ahh. I overlooked you calling MeetMe first and only when it "answers" you
start calling SIP phone...
The only way I found to pass "r" option to Dial application was:

Channel: Local/100 at default
Application: Dial
Data: Local/101 at default||r
Priority: 1

but it does not work. According to "core show application dial", the "r"
parameter used to "Indicate ringing to the calling party. Pass no audio to
the calling  party until the called channel has answered." which from my
understanding means that Dial just uses some API to notify callin party
ringing is in progress. It does NOT emulate ringing tone. 
When you doing same with two SIP phones you onle hear ringing because your
SIP phone generates ringging tone when asterisk indicates that current
status is "ringing".
