There is no way to prevent the playback based on the channel's current hangup 
state. The hangup state generally hasn't changed by the time we enter the 
announcement function. The blind transfer itself isn't what initiates the 
hangup. It's the response we get from the phone to the SIP notify after 
returning from everything in the bridge blind transfer code. At best we'd end 
up with a race condition between the announcement subscription and hanging up 
on the BYE we get from the phones.

This stuff worked with chan_sip in Asterisk 11 because Asterisk 11's chan_sip 
had logic specifically in place to handle deferring the final notify (the one 
that triggers the BYE from phones) when parking completed.


Perhaps it would be more palpable if instead of adding this to flag to the API 
call, I instead added it to the transfer channel data wrapper. As for a name 
change, how about just 'disable_media'?

Alternatively, I can start investigating what it would take to be able to defer 
the final notify of chan_sip blind transfers. I know you said we don't want to 
go down that road right now, but it's basically the only real way of getting 
this to behave like it behaved in Asterisk 11.
