If I understand you correctly, you want to monitor/modify the audio 
associated with some channels (which is not 'RTP', Asterisk does not use 
RTP internally). You are correct that you can't do this from the same 
thread that you are running ast_bridge_call() from, because that thread 
is dedicated to handling the call bridge while the call is up.

You probably want to look at the audiohooks API; this is what many 
modules in Asterisk already used to attach themselves to channels and 
manipulate the audio.
