Here is the AMI packet I use to do this:

Action: Originate
Channel: Local/do_playback at cfmc_cdi_private
Exten: do_chanspy
Context: cfmc_cdi_private
Priority: 1
Variable: CfMC_ActionID=callE1330
Variable: CfMC_WhatToPlay=cfmc/song
Variable: CfMC_WhoHear=SIP/GXP280-16-0844e290
ActionID: callE1330
Async: true


And here are the extensions from extensions.conf: (Watch email line wraps)

exten => do_playback,1,Answer()
exten => do_playback,n,UserEvent(BeforePlayBack,ActionID:${CfMC_ActionID} &
${UNIQUEID} & ${CHANNEL} & ${CfMC_WhatToPlay} & ${CfMC_WhoHear})
exten => do_playback,n,Wait(0.3)
exten => do_playback,n,Playback(${CfMC_WhatToPlay})
; PLAYBACKSTATUS - SUCCESS FAILED
exten => do_playback,n,UserEvent(AfterPlayBack,ActionID:${CfMC_ActionID} &
${UNIQUEID} & ${CHANNEL} & ${CfMC_WhatToPlay} & ${CfMC_WhoHear} &
${PLAYBACKSTATUS})
exten => do_playback,n,Hangup()

exten => do_chanspy,1,Answer()
exten => do_chanspy,n,UserEvent(BeforeChanSpy,ActionID:${CfMC_ActionID} &
${UNIQUEID} & ${CHANNEL} & ${CfMC_WhatToPlay} & ${CfMC_WhoHear})
exten => do_chanspy,n,ChanSpy(${CfMC_WhoHear},qW)
exten => do_chanspy,n,UserEvent(AfterChanSpy,ActionID:${CfMC_ActionID} &
${UNIQUEID} & ${CHANNEL} & ${CfMC_WhatToPlay} & ${CfMC_WhoHear})
exten => do_chanspy,n,Hangup()



What this does is "dial" an extension to play what I want to play and then
bridge in a ChanSpy with whisper so the extension I want to hear the sound
can "listen" in.

This seems to do the trick for me.
