[asterisk-users] musiconhold restarts for every extension

[Benko]

Hi Brian!

Actually i play a message to the caller, something like "Hello and
welcome at ..., someone will take your call in a few seconds" - so a
random musiclist is not an option. Even if i would play music only, it
doesn't sound very cool if the music is changed within 5 secs. I would
suggest to hang the DJ if i was the caller.

Regards
Christian
