Hello,

Let say Alice and Bob both have a sip phone connected to the same asterisk
11 box.
Alice has T.38 enabled softphone.

When Alice sends a fax to Bob extension, the following happens on my system:
- Bob phone starts to ring
- Bob answers
- asterisk sends the incoming call to appropriate fax extension
- Bob is hearing nothing at all: no tone, no sound at all.

I want to play an audio file back to Bob, something "Do not panic, you are
receiving a fax', before hanging up.

How can I do this ?

Playing with pre-dial handlers, I could enter the dialplan context I
dedicated to this feature but obviously, inside that context, applications
like Wait or Playback fail with messages like:

    -- Executing [s@check-fax-reception:2] Playback("SIP/7005-0000028f",
"tt-weasels") in new stack
[Aug 13 16:19:03] WARNING[24235][C-0000046f]: file.c:830
ast_readaudio_callback: Failed to write frame

Or:

    -- Executing [s@check-fax-reception:2] Wait("SIP/7005-00000291", "0.5")
in new stack
  == Spawn extension (check-fax-reception, s, 2) exited non-zero on
'SIP/7005-00000291'
[Aug 13 16:36:32] NOTICE[24309][C-00000470]: app_stack.c:1031 gosub_run:
SIP/7005-00000291 Abnormal
'Gosub(check-fax-reception,s,1(SIP/7012-00000290,7005))' exit.  Popping
routine return locations.



My understanding is :
when a fax is detected and sent a fax extension, callee channel is in a
state "close to termination" which is not compatible with many dialplan
applications.


How can I work around this ?
Suggestions ?

Regards
