It can be done on isdn connection and over VoIP links as well. The reverse audio path is (can be) opened before the answer. The answer allows the forward path to be opened. E.g. you can use Playback(someFile|noanswer) to play a custom busy message without answering the line on isdn. Dial() application will answer the incoming line once it is ready to bridge the two calls together. If nothing else then one can always modify the Dial() application to play a specific sound just prior to sending the answer. I have not checked if there already is a generic way to hook into Dial that early.
