Wow...  last ditch, delete the user, change out their phone, wipe out
that extension, create a new account with a new extension and add her
old one as an alias.

 

If that doesn't solve it...

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

 

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!

Yeah, his way is a bit easier :)

If the volume is low with a buttset, then it would be low no matter what
is was plugged into. 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.

        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?

        Just a thought - why don't you try swapping two of your analog
lines going into the audiocodes device.  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...

        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.

        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

        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.
