Description:	Im testing out Asterisk 1.6-beta9 (tarball release from website) and was going to add a simple testcase of a user "music" to try out moh. Now, when I was trying this I got. Silence. UNTIL: I added a Playback before the MusicOnHold,  Then suddenly the music played. in the sip.conf: [music] type=user username=music host=dynamic context=music Two examples of extensions.conf: Working example: [music] exten => music,1,Ringing exten => music,n,Wait(2) exten => music,3,Answer exten => music,4,Set(CHANNEL(musicclass)=default) exten => music,5,Playback(tt-allbusy) exten => music,6,MusicOnHold(default,20) exten => music,60,HangUp NOT Working: exten => music,1,Ringing exten => music,n,Wait(2) exten => music,3,Answer exten => music,4,Set(CHANNEL(musicclass)=default) ; exten => music,5,Playback(tt-allbusy) exten => music,6,MusicOnHold(default,20) exten => music,60,HangUp Im frankly at a loss as to why the music wouldnt play when you do not have a playback before.
Comments:	By: Dennis Ljungmark (dmd) 2008-07-08 06:42:36 added verification that simply playing 1 second of silence will be enough that it shall start stremaing music on hold. By: Mark Michelson (mmichelson) 2008-07-08 18:07:15 The sample dialplan provided did not cause the same results for me, but it did produce similar symptoms. For me, the Ringing was silent unless I put a playback before it. Like with you, adding a second of silence was all that was necessary to get the Ringing to play properly. I will look further into this and see what's up. By: Mark Michelson (mmichelson) 2008-07-08 18:33:50 Well, I fixed my Ringing silence problem by setting progressinband=yes in sip.conf. I'm not sure that that will also help with the music on hold silence problem you're experiencing. By: Dennis Ljungmark (dmd) 2008-07-09 02:27:50 Tested your solution and it does not work for this problem. (For me at least) More instructions on how to debug further (if needed) would be good. By: Michiel van Baak (mvanbaak) 2008-07-13 18:20:58 You do know that the sample you gave has a gap in priorities ? If you have your dialplan with the correct priorities and it's still an issue please report back By: Dennis Ljungmark (dmd) 2008-07-15 03:28:37 [music] exten => music,1,Ringing exten => music,2,Wait(2) exten => music,3,Answer exten => music,4,MusicOnHold(default,5) exten => music,5,HangUp Does not work either.
