> App_audiosocket was added to Asterisk 18, and it provides a way to ferry audio data to and from an external program. However, it does not provide a way to exit cleanly from the application: even though the audiosocket protocol defines the way to end a session (with a specific "end session" packet type), and res_asterisk.c checks for this end session packet, the audiosocket_run function in app_audiosocket.c doesn't handle this case, in fact it does not ever return from the endless loop, except with -1 -- which in turn terminates the call.
> However, closing the audiosocket connection remotely should not necessarily mean that the dialplan must terminate as well. We may want to redirect the user to some queue, do cleanup etc.
> Therefore, I propose that app_audiosocket handle this case. It appears to be possible, I even have an experimental patch.
