This is a known issue with Polycom firmware 3.2.x when utilizing FreeSWITCH. 
Currently no known fix, nor an ETA of the fix. It's slightly annoying but most 
people don't notice it.

If you load firmware 3.1.3 on your polycom phones you'll notice the skipping 
goes away.

Subject: Re: [sipx-users] Voicemail IVR Voice Stutters During Playback

Sorry this is such an old issue, but I'm revisiting it since I'm still having 
the problem even on other phones.

I'm wondering if the problem comes from an OS or hardware problem. I wonder if 
my CPU has enough power to process the files. It only happens at the beginning 
of a phrase. I don't know if everything is just a .wav file and that maybe the 
delay is caused from a delay at reading the file in question or processing it. 
I have a single processor Pentium4 3.2 GHz w/ 2GB RAM and a SATA hard drive.

I think the issue is that the Polycom phone is reproducing the sound so well 
that it shows all of the skips. If I listen close on other phones (like an 
analog phone connected to a Grandstream HT386 ATA) I can hear the skipping but 
it's not as pronounced.

Where do I find all of the files that make up the voicemail and AA prompts? 
I'll download and open them to make sure they aren't bad somehow.

Thanks,

is this just at the very beginning of the message?

could you download the message to your PC to see if the actual message like 
that?  This will determine if it is a recording issue or a playback issue.

There is a one right way, and multiple wrong ways to upgrade bootrom/firmware 
in sipxecs.

When you upload polycom firmware or bootrom, it should still be zipped, and 
uploaded using the "polycom files" dropdown box"

Are you using lldp for phone discovery or SLA? If not, firmware 3.1.3RevC s 
safest to use (IMO).

I'm running BootROM 4.3.0.0246 (which is Rev. B) and SIP 3.2.1.0054. Do I need 
to roll back the BootROM to 4.2.2?

I tried loading 4.2.2 into sipX-config (Devices >> Device files) and rebooting 
the phones, but the same BootROM (4.3.0) is still coming up when I go to the 
phone's status page. What's the correct way to roll back the firmware?

By the way, when you say "firmware" are you referring to the sip.ld application 
or the BootROM?

Hi. I'm not sure why, when I play back voicemail messages, the IVR voice
stutters. It sounds like it is stuttering at the beginning of each
phrase. It sounds like really bad jitter/latency. The actual voice
message sounds just fine. It's just the IVR voice that is the problem.

Playback is on a Polycom IP 670 and a Polycom IP 450 using the default
g.722 codec. I'm running sipXecs 4.2.1 on a Pentium 4 running a 3.0 GHz
single-core processor and 2GB of DRAM. My install is based on the latest
4.2.1 ISO. I have plenty of free RAM and am not using the swap memory.
I'm running Asterisk on a box that has less horsepower and I have no
such problems.

Here's the performance output from the top command:

top - 17:09:43 up 22 days, 20:02,  1 user,  load average: 0.07, 0.07, 0.02

While checking VM or leaving a VM message, the CPU never appears to go
over 1% to 5% usage.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
