Summary:                    Can not change Call-Waiting tone duration and
frequency
Description: 
Our users reports that the call-waiting tone on analog phones connected to
Zaptel hardware (TDM400 & TDM2400) is too disturbing.
I tryed to change it's duration in indications.conf AND in zonedata.c
(recompiled, etc...), but it doesn't change anything (changing other tones,
ie dialtone works fine!).
Basically, whatever is configured in those 2 files, the CWT is 300ms long
at 440Hz, and is repeated every 3 or 4 seconds! (it seems that a CWT is
emitted at the beginning of each ring-back tone sent to the caller)

Another issue is that when a call is bridged between 2 local extensions,
both parties hear the CWT, so no one knows who is concerned

I'm not going to close this just yet.

I did a little bit of testing after re-reading your comment about the beep
repeating every 3-4 seconds.  You're right (it's actually 5 seconds in most
cases) - and that is a bug (it should be 10 seconds).

I can see why it's happening (both the connected channel and the waiting
channel do an ast_read which each decrement the same delay counter), I'm
just not entirely sure how to fix it yet.

I'm going to try to work something out for that today.
