Yes. Announcements are played to the conference members by creating a
channel of type 'Bridge' which streams the sound files.

Well, there is no sample configuration in the tarball because
ConfBridge does require any configuration file.

'core show application ConfBridge' in the CLI will give you the
options list. You'd probably also want to take a look at the
app_confbridge.c file. Very short and readable for such a powerful
app.
