When I use the DTMF, the first tone sometimes get cut off. I've traced this to the following error message at the astrisk cli:

Code: Select all

    -- Executing Answer("Local/8500998@default-43d4,2", "") in new stack
       > Channel Local/8500998@default-43d4,1 was answered.

Any idea why the silence didn't kick in?

Actually, ext 8500998 works fine by itself!

From extensions.conf

Code: Select all

exten => 8500998,1,Answer
exten => 8500998,2,Playback(silence)
exten => 8500998,3,AGI(agi-dtmf.agi)
exten => 8500998,4,Hangup

also, silence.wav exists

When I dial it myself, it works and gives me the full tones.

Asterisk 1.2.10 + snapshot release, but this problem has been around since 1.x for me.

What happens if you add a comma "," to the beginning of the DTMF to be played field?

Adding a comma solves the delay problem, but the error still comes up in the cli.

What Asterisk version are you using?

Is the silence.gsm file present in your /var/lib/asterisk/sounds folder?

I've got Asterisk 1.2.10.

I have silence.wav in that directory instead.

Does the error appear if you use Asterisk 1.2.13?

Haven't upgraded there yet. Is it safe for production?

I am running it in production now on one server and it seems to work fine for me.
