MOH for Google outbound waiting

[oab2]

I had a previous (1.7.5.5.3) install that I had patched to get it to work on gvoice outbound calls. I just did a complete new install with 1.7.5.5.5 and noticed that now when I place a call with my gvoice it tells me to wait and then plays a beep.gsm sound before connecting my outbound call.

How can I change it back to playing MOH while the gvoice is being connected? I use gvoice for VmX Locater and the beep tone confuses callers, they think they should leave a message.

Here is my old extensions_custom.conf

[gvoice-USERID]
exten => _X.,1,System(gvoice -e [email protected] -p PASSWORD call ${EXTEN} [email protected] 9 &)
exten => _X.,n,Set(DB(gv_dialout_USERID/channel)=${CHANNEL})
exten => _X.,n,MusicOnHold(connect-gv,20)
exten => _X.,n,Noop(Never received callback from Google Voice on channel ${DB_DELETE(gv_dialout_USERID/channel)} – exiting)
exten => h,1,GotoIf($["${CHANNEL(state)}" = "Ring"]?:bridged)
exten => h,n,Noop(Hangup on channel ${DB_DELETE(gv_dialout_USERID/channel)})
exten => h,n,System(gvoice -e [email protected] -p PASSWORD cancel &)
exten => h,n,Hangup()
exten => h,n(bridged),Noop(The channel has been bridged successfully)

[gvoice-return-USERID]
exten => s,1,NoCDR()
exten => s,n,Bridge(${DB_DELETE(gv_dialout_USERID/channel)})

New extensions_custom.conf

[gvoice-USERID]
exten => _X.,1,System(sudo /usr/bin/gvoice -e [email protected] -p PASSWORD call ${EXTEN} [email protected] 9 &)
exten => _X.,n,Background(pls-wait-connect-call)
exten => _X.,n,Set(DB(gv_dialout_USERID/channel)=${CHANNEL})
exten => _X.,n,Wait(30)
exten => _X.,n,Noop(Never received callback from Google Voice on channel ${DB_DELETE(gv_dialout_USERID/channel)} – exiting)
exten => h,1,GotoIf($["${CHANNEL(state)}" = "Ring"]?:bridged)
exten => h,n,Noop(Hangup on channel ${DB_DELETE(gv_dialout_USERID/channel)})
exten => h,n,System(sudo /usr/bin/gvoice -e [email protected] -p PASSWORD cancel &)
exten => h,n,Hangup()
exten => h,n(bridged),Noop(The channel has been bridged successfully)

Hmm..The callback method was phased out a while ago. Did you just copy over your configs from the old box?

See my posts here for an updated (and verified working) Google Voice configuration. As I said, the callback is no longer needed. Can you please post the output of 'status'?

No, the new config is from a clean install of purple today. The "old" configs were from a install back in December. It was then that I had to do a fix to get gvoice working again and that was the fix suggested.

I would do a backup of your extensions_custom.conf (Try cp extensions_custom.conf extensions_custom.conf.BAK) and then replace your [gvoice-USERID] section with the [gvoice-USERID] section from my post above and try and see if it works that way. There is no need for a callback anymore, and shouldn't need to wait or have MOH.

Thanks Ross. I will give this a try and get back to you in the next couple days.

So is the current PIAF Purple not up to date then?

Well I was able to through your code in and things are working great (and much faster). I did add:
exten => _X.,n,Background(pls-wait-connect-call)

so people know what's going on.

Thanks!
