David,

I'm not going to include the 'extra' sounds.  There are ways you can do 
this with unionfs.  Basically download the files after you have a 
working Astlinux setup then copy the files to /var/lib/asterisk/sounds/ 
which will result in them being on the unionfs partition.

If the files are in the squashfs file, those files are either accessed 
via a squashfs image resulting in potential playback issues or copied to 
ram.
