Thomas,
   Thanks for your help so far. I finally figured out
where 'debug level 10' dumps to. In reading the logs
there, it's telling me I'm out of licenses. I'm not a
math wizard by any means, but I would assume with g729
on the GXP-2000 and on the IAX trunk, I would only
need 1 license to transcode my IVR prompts to the
incoming caller. However, it seems to use all 6
available, and never releases them, even after hanging
up the call. I haven't found a way to see what
process(s) are using each license instance. I
downloaded the re-recorded set you referenced, and I
can hear the default system prompts, but all my
previously recorded prompts are null because of the
'out of license' issue. For the recording, even with
console verbosity set to 16, the out of license
messsage was never logged to the console, only to the
debug text. I'm off to find a way to transcode my
custom prompts into g729 (or get the freepbx recording
interface to do so for new prompts) but if someone can
help me determine why * thinks I need more than 6
licenses for a single incoming call I would appreciate
it. TIA
