A packet capture on the server's Ethernet port would allow you to listen to
the message being left on that voicemail box to see if it is in the RTP
stream, or in the file storage itself.  Not sure that it solves anything,
but would certainly help understand more with regards to what is actually
failing.

 

Do a packet capture with Wireshark, then go into Telephone, and view your
sip calls.  You can select the call and play both sides of the audio stream.

Subject: Re: [sipx-users] Low Voicemail Message Volume

 

Ok, we have audiocodes inbound lines to the sipxecs system. Polycom
soundpoint IP 450's and internal voicemail on the sipxecs. 

 

We have 25 users configured. One user checks their voicemail and they cannot
hear the recorded message. We originally thought that it was just the
caller. Later we found it was all the voicemails to this one user. You can
turn the volume up all the way it will go and you can almost hear the
messages, but then the prompts are so loud you can't stand it.

I've tried calling other mailboxes and do not experience this problem. We've
tried different phones calling in, we've even tried talking more loudly when
recording the message.

I have checked in that directory and pulled wav files from different
mailboxes and this user's files are just quiet and very hard to hear. Gain
changes did not help (but it was just a test anyway) it was not any louder
than before. I tried deleting it and allowing the system to recreate this
box, hoping that it would return to normal (yes, grasping at straws). Still,
the voicemail box records this user's messages with very low playback
volume, while other users have no problems hearing their voicemails. 

 

Thanks for your response.
Lara

That makes no sense.  You tried this from a different phone?  Messing with
gain on your gateways usually leads to echo and static.  You haven't
described your configuration so we don't really have much to go on.

 

But to answer your question, just wipe out the mailbox directory.

 

The mailbox directories are in /var/sipxdata/mediaserver/data/mailstore

Subject: [sipx-users] Low Voicemail Message Volume

 

I have a single user on a SipXecs deployment that has unbearably low volume
on their voicemail messages. 

I have tried adjusting the gain of the incoming voice to compensate
believing that it may have been the gateway. All other users seem to be
unaffected. You can record a voicemail for this user and replay it to
yourself and you cannot hear it even before you allow it to send. Speaking
louder and other methods to remedy all result the same. The prompts play
nice and loud when you put the phone volume to its highest setting and the
voicemail is meek in comparison. Sometimes the voicemails are
indecipherable.

 

I wanted to delete the mailbox and recreate it, but I do not know of a way
to do so. When you disable a user it just disconnects their access to the
voicemail box and if you re-enable them it just gives them the same box. 

Any suggestions or solutions are welcome.
