</head><BODY BGCOLOR="#CED1E1" ><div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;">The issue for me was a potential bug with tsc clock source on some motherboards in kernel version 2.6.18 this week.</SPAN></div>
<div> </div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;">I have upgraded to 2.6.23.1 and this solved the problem.  Regardless of the below, my bet would be a kernel version issue.</SPAN></div>
<div> </div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;">I was also able to make this work by using noacpi option on the kernel, however, this broke the rest of the system because IRQ's were not assigned correctly.</SPAN></div>
<div> </div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;">There is some indication that the ACPI settings on the BIOS for power settings does impact this as well.<br /><br /></span></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> Hi,</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">></SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> I was testing a PC set up with Asterisk 1.4.8 and Zaptel 1.4.4 and</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> discovered that hold music would play, but anything requiring a</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> voice prompt would hang indefinitely.  I came across this issue,</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> which is marked closed. I am  able to replicate this exact</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> behavior.  I am not using any zaptel hardwar and if ztdummy is</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> running, no voice prompts will play, but hold music will.  If I</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> unload ztdummy, voice prompts and music both work, but MeetMe()</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> does not.  It works whether Zaptel is loaded or not.  What is</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> interesting is that I just tried this same installation in a</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> different PC and it works fine.</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">></SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> I am running a live installation (Slax 5.1.8.1 with kernel 2.6.16)</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> of Asterisk on a USB stick, so the complete OS and configuration is</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> identical on both systems, but one exhibits this issue while the</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> other does not.  Can anyone suggest a way to determine whether this</SPAN></div>
<div><SPAN style="font-size:10pt;color:navy;">> is a Zaptel or Linux kernel issue?</SPAN></div>
