Ok, here's what I did yesterday. Sorry for not keeping completely up to the moment.
I called in on every line on the AC (there's six) and left two voicemails, one on the problem user and one on a "control" extension that did not have the issues. Every call exhibited the same thing. I did call in on a SIP did to that extension and it did not have those issues. I switched ports on the Audiocodes, with no change. I completely changed Audiocodes (had a new one lying around) and still no change. I tried to up the gain to 15, which I had previously only went to 10. This helped enough to where the user did not have to up the phone volume to max to hear most of their messages. I connected to each line on the AC on the 66 block with a butt-in set and experienced no low volume problems there or at the dmarc. I called in to each line and answered on this particular extension and could speak without volume problems. So currently we've had to sacrifice some static to get the voicemails. It still confounds me as to why this is only a single user's mailbox that has such bad volume problems. Thanks for all the input!

Finding the offending line and turning it over to the telco to fix "AFTER" you ensure it is not split 10 ways and being used as an am radio antenna or something. Seriously, I have had analog lines so horribly connected I could listen the the radio over the dial tone... and its always the wrong station. ----- Original Message ----- From: Picher, Michael <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> To: Nathaniel Watkins; Lara Johnson <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> Sent: Wed Mar 17 17:38:18 2010 Subject: RE: [sipx-users] Low Voicemail Message Volume Yes, the only time I had this sort of issue it was line side... Can you put an analog phone on each line and test it?

Then call the other number - This would allow you to know that it is not the line. If it is not the line, I would then try changing the autodial configuration on the audiocodes so you can swap ports on the audiocodes. This way you'll at least rule out non-sipx possibilities...

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.

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 Mike From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>] On Behalf Of Lara Johnson Sent: Tuesday, March 16, 2010 1:09 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> 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.
