[asterisk-users] How to deal with error messages passed as Early Media

[Scott Griepentrog]

For calls that fail, even where early media is played, the call should
terminate with a 4xx or 5xx SIP response which to a certain degree
correlates to the nature of the actual failure.  The SIP error code is
delayed until the media playback completes, but should be no different
whether or not early media is used (for the same actual failure).

Early media is simply an audio stream for human consumption to explain the
failure.  There should be no need to attempt to recognize it, unless your
ITSP is not terminating the call correctly.
