[asterisk-users] Dial/Continue/Announce

[Matthew Rubenstein]

	I initiate a call with a callfile, specifying the "From" phone# as the
channel Dial(), and the "To" phone# as the Extension Dial(). I announce
the To phone# to the From listener with the A() option to the Dial()
command. It seems that the A() app plays audio while blocking return
from the From Dial(), so the From person has to wait more time while
listening to the announcement before the To Dial() can even begin, which
then must start ringing. How can I connect to the From person, then
immediately connect to the To person, while playing an announcement to
the From person?
