[asterisk-users] Autofallthrough delays before hanging up calling channel?

[Tony Mountifield]

I am seeing some curious behaviour with a 1.2.32 system, which I do not
understand and so can't work out how to fix it.

I have a PRI routed to context default. Here is the complete default
context:

[default]
exten => _9X.,1,Dial(IAX2/m1peer/${EXTEN:1})
exten => _20XX,1,Dial(IAX2/sipeer/${EXTEN})
exten => _X.,1,Dial(IAX2/m1peer/${EXTEN})
exten => _X.,2,NoOp(DIALSTATUS=${DIALSTATUS}:HANGUPCAUSE=${HANGUPCAUSE})
;exten => _X.,3,Hangup

I also have autofallthrough=yes in the [general] section.

The problem occurs when I dial an extension that returns busy. The Dial
returns immediately and goes straight on to the NoOp, which confirms
the busy status, but the system then waits 10 seconds before hanging
up the calling Zap channel, even though autofallthrough is set to yes.

Here is the verbose output:

    -- Accepting call from '' to '2001' on channel 0/1, span 3
    -- Executing Dial("Zap/63-1", "IAX2/sipeer/2001") in new stack
  == ast_request: Original IAX2 capabilities=65535, fmt=72
  == ast_request: Negotiated IAX2 capabilities=64, fmt=64
    -- Call accepted by 192.168.0.2 (format alaw)
    -- Format for call is alaw
    -- Called sipeer/2001
    -- IAX2/sipeer-9504 is busy
    -- Hungup 'IAX2/sipeer-9504'
  == Everyone is busy/congested at this time (1:1/0/0)
    -- Executing NoOp("Zap/63-1", "DIALSTATUS=BUSY:HANGUPCAUSE=0") in new stack
  == Auto fallthrough, channel 'Zap/63-1' status is 'BUSY'

Then a 10-second delay before this line:

    -- Hungup 'Zap/63-1'

I thought autofallthrough=yes should make it hangup immediately.

Also, the Zap channel is not receiving BUSY status, but NOANSWER instead.

If I uncomment the Hangup at priority 3, the calling line dies get hung up
immediately, but then the BUSY status still does not get propagated.

Any advice on why this delay occurs with autofallthrough=yes, and how
to eliminate it?

Thanks,
Tony
