Thanks for the replies. I wrote a script in SpiderMonkey to place a call, and upon connct turn on vmd, play a "press 1" prompt to see if there is a human, and then play some more prompts. If a voicemail beep is heard it starts playing a different prompt. I tested this with almost 300 phone numbers, but I suspect a disproportionate number of these are cell phones. Among the calls not answered by a human (nobody pressed 1), about 60% of the calls failed to recognize a beep. My cell phone is T-Mobile, and it doesn't detect the beep for it.
