             Summary: app_dial:  There's no way to override the hangupcause on unanswered channels
                 Key: ASTERISK-26446
                 URL: https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-26446
             Project: Asterisk
          Issue Type: Bug
      Security Level: None
          Components: Applications/app_dial
    Affects Versions: 14.0.2, 13.11.2, GIT
            Reporter: George Joseph
            Severity: Minor


When multiple channels are dialed and 1 answers, ANSWERED_ELSEWHERE is always sent to the unanswered channels.  This doesn't work in all situations because some phones won't treat this as a missed call.  Although you can call Hangup() in a hangup_handler and set the cause, Hangup doesn't return and causes the hangup handler to emit a NOTICE that the handler exited abnormally.

An option to Dial to set the cause on unanswered channels would be appropriate.
