Stefan, can you attach your tests to the issue in a file? One of the reason we discourage links to external services is demonstrated by the fact that your pastebin has been removed and is no longer available.

> <Stefan27> Does the sound prompt searching as in https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Sound+Prompt+Searching+based+on+Channel+Language really work as the wiki page says? I tried putting Set(CHANNEL(language)=en_test) and then Playback(mooon.wav) but this only works when i have created a file called mooon.wav in the sounds/en directory, not when i create it in the sounds/en/test directory

> <mjordan> I'm not sure the wiki page is correct however.
> <mjordan> Asterisk will do a fallback, in that if you have a sound in en_foo, it will play it - but if that sound doesn't exist, it will check en next
> <mjordan> What I'm not sure of is that it will form a path search from the underscores.
> <mjordan> But I haven't dug deep enough to know for sure.
> <mjordan> looking all the way back to 1.8, it looks like it would not form a sub-directory search. I think the wiki page is probably just wrong.
> <mjordan> Based on the example there, it would instead do the following:
> <mjordan> If the channel language is "en_GB_female_BT", check for that folder first, i.e., sounds/en_GB_female_BT
> <mjordan> If it didn't find the sound, check sounds/en_GB_female
> <mjordan> again, if it didn't find it, check sounds/en_GB
> <mjordan> and finally, check sounds/en
