[asterisk-users] SayDigits playback doesn't always work

[Danny Nicholas]

You aren't "opening the line" in the 123 call.  In the 200 call, the
Answer() opens the output audio channel.  In the 123 call you are "plunging"
into the SayDigits() function without opening the channel.  Some functions
will generate their own Answer() if not present, others will not.

In addition: I tried adding Playback(hello) to the 123 extension, before the
SayDigits. Then everything is being played perfectly.

 

Also when I park a call to 700, I cannot hear the playback of the parking
lot. I do see this in the logs though, so I can pickup the call then, but it
should be played back to the one who is parking of course.

 

So something seems to be wrong with SayDigits?

Hi,

 

I have this wierd problem where SayDigits does work when I execute it via a
menu, but not when calling directly. In my extensions, I have this setup:

 

exten => 200,1,Answer()

  same => n,Background(main-menu)

  same => n,WaitExten(5)

 

exten => 123,1,Wait(2)

 same => n,SayDigits(${EXTEN})

 

 

Now when I call 200, I hear the menu, and then when I press 123, it plays
back one two three. Everything is OK.

 

When I call 123 from the same phone, I do see that the sound files are being
played to me, but I don't  hear any sound.

 

In Asterisk CLI I see this:

This is the call that doesn't work. Then when I call 200, I see this:

This call works perfectly. What am I missing?

 

In my sip.conf I have:

 

[stumpel-zwaag](!)                              ; create template for our
devices

type=friend                                     ; the channel driver will
mathc on username first, IP second

context=StumpelZwaag                            ; this is where calls from
the device will enter the dialplan

host=dynamic                                    ; the device will register
with asterisk

;nat=yes                                                ; assume the device
is behind nat

secret=xxx                              ; a secure password for this device

dtmfmode=auto                                   ; accept touch-tones from
devices, negotiated automatically

disallow=all                                    ; reset with voice codecs to
accept from, and request to, the device

allow=alaw                                      ; which audio codecs we
accept from

canreinvite=nonat
