This is getting really interesting. I had a chance to do some testing last night. To recap, here is what I'm attempting to do:
Caller --> INBOUND_PRI --> Asterisk --> OUTBOUND_PRI --> AnswerService The caller dials our number, * picks the call and offers some choices. If the caller needs to speak to a human, * dials the answering service and then bridges the calls. It works flawlessly in this scenario. If I do Monitor() or MixMonitor() on the channel before dialing the outbound call, 99.9% of the time I get no audio to the caller. Now for the interesting part: If I substitute my cell phone number (xxx-xxxx) for that of the answering service (1-877-...) everything, including Monitor(), works just fine. The same goes for calling my home number instead of the cell phone. I don't know what my cell phone and home phone terminates into when I dial those numbers but if I call my answering service I know that they have a T1/PRI. I have done a PRI DEBUG SPAN 4 (where 4 is the outbound PRI) and repeated the tests, capturing the output. Nothing in them jumps out at me as yet but I'll keep looking at them. Does this offer anything suggestive David?
