When you playback a file in Asterisk you don't provide the extension.

So you'd do Playback(fail) rather than Playback(fail.wav)

That way if you have 10 files all called fail (i.e. fail.wav, fail.gsm, 
fail.ulaw, fail.alaw etc etc) it will pick the one which matches the 
phone calls.

For example in the above example you were making a call in the GSM 
format but it couldn't find a file called fail.wav.gsm so it looked for 
fail.wav.* and couldn't find anything.

Basically just drop the extension.
