[asterisk-users] "pickupsound = beep" kills call pickup in Asterisk1.8.4.2

[Alec Davis]

This has been fixed only last month, see
https://issues.asterisk.org/view.php?id=18654 and try bug18654.diff.txt
That will avoid the deadlock, but it's not the proper fix, there are other
issues that could trip you up,
mainly to do with race conditions with multiple channels picking up the same
ringing extensions.
