[Asterisk-Users] Problem with fax tone (CNG) from TxFax and busydetect

I have a similar problem:
I dial out but no CNG signal is sent at all. It is as if the auto-dial
program never sees the line has been answered. It never calls the
application.
I set it up to dial my cell phone. I answer and nothing, dead. I hang up and
the script hangs up.
My call file is set up as yours.
