I downloaded the ulaw standard prompts and dropped them into the /var/lib/asterisk/sounds
Just hitting the voicemail system, the default seems to playback a bit differently. "you have no messages" is more like "you have (pause) no (pause) messages". The spacing on the rest of the menus sounds normal though. There seems to be a slight hollow or tinny reverb quality to the sound but it wouldn't be noticeable to most people. And finally, I like the way the files were voiced a whole lot better. Not nearly so "breathy" especially the "goodbye" which sounds a lot more professional IMHO.
