[asterisk-users] Overhead pager announcement in "background" channel

[Mitch Claborn]

We have an overhead paging system that is working fine with our asterisk 
16.1 server. I'd like to be able to push an announcement to the paging 
extension (PJSIP) without disrupting the current channel. Can this be 
done? I want to use it in the dial plan when a 911/emergency call is 
placed, so it is imperative that the calling channel not be disrupted.

The following works, but it disrupts the calling channel:
Dial(${PAGER},20,A(filename)L(3000))
