The way I see it if you make EXEC MixMonitor inside AsyncAGI loop and
then redirect to MeetMe and you don't get the audio recorded, then
it's not a normal behavior, MixMonitor is an application that should
passively monitor the channel audio independently of where the channel
is (regardless of whether the command was executed in Async AGI or
dial plan or whatever). However you are also using an old asterisk
version and is not likely you can report a bug unless you upgrade to
the latest Asterisk and reproduce without a patched Asterisk (for
example executing EXEC MixMonitor inside a regular AGI script and then
redirect to MeetMe).
