Are you sure you specified an argument to the 'r' option? Or did you
just try 'r' without an argument?

For me.. if I specify a uk tonezone, to get it playing uk tones I have
to specify an argument to the 'r' option. If I try just 'r' by itself
then I get US tones. You would think, that without specifying an
argument, it should default to the tonezone in use on the channel.
That may be a bug or oversight.

What version of Asterisk were you using, and what channel type?
