What exactly commands I should invoke in AGI instead of <start music>
and <stop music> ? STREAM FILE returns only after file ends, this is not
what I want.
Execute 'stream file' in a separate thread.
The only 'restriction' is that you cannot execute any other AGI commands
in the 'mainline' thread until either the 'background' thread finishes or
you 'join' it.
This makes sense if you think about how the AGI protocol is implemented --
write a request, read a response, rinse, lather, repeat. If you don't read
the response (which will block execution until 'stream file' finishes),
you violate the protocol.
This includes seemingly innocuous AGI commands like 'verbose.' Think of it
like 'all Asterisk interaction has to be done in the background thread' as
long as the background thread is executing.
