Ah well - Rather than try to read about it, I tried to do it - and 
failled. It wants to transcode to slin - or at least I guess that's what 
this means:

   Aug 11 17:50:04 WARNING[30573]: channel.c:1212 queue_frame_to_spies:
 		Cannot build a path from g729 to slin

Bother.

Transcoding is something that's not an option here. Hm. Maybe old 
fashioned 'monitor' and offline mixing although I'm open to suggestions 
here..
