Outbound call is drop once a tone is received

I have a Trixbox with Version 2.8.0.4, FreePBX Version 2.7.0 and an Asterisk Version 1.6.0.26 running on Centos Release 5.5 (Final).

I’m not sure if this a FreePBX or Asterisk information issue but I would like to here your suggestions.

I’m currently using a Cisco SPA504G as my devices for my extensions.

Here is the scenario of my problem:

  1. I will dial an outgoing line from my extension and dial a 1800 number
  2. I will be able to connect to the 1800 number and I will hear the announcement asking me to provide information. The 1800 number is a Meet Me conference number and I will be able to enter the passcode to the conference but then when the message “After the tone please state your name” and when the tone is heard the line gets drop.

I’m using a Draytek 3300V as my FXO port and I have configured this without any problem for my 10 POTS. I can also use the FXO ports without any problem when I dial any number except when I receive any tone from the receiving party.

Appreciate your help. Thanks

Kindly post your config and logs. Are you recording voice simply into a local file or you have configured some sort of speech recognition system, as it is very populare and some voip service providers like Axvoice, are already planning to utilize speech technology in their voip system. Also verify that MeetMe is installed and running properly as this could happen. By inspecting dialplan logs the issue can be traced.

Hello CarolClark,

Thank you for answering my posts. Just to explain further, as explained in my previous post, I’m dialing a 1800 number thru my extension via an FXO port extension. I’m not using any voice recording or some sort of speech recognition as I’m not dialing into my own MeetMe Conference extension. My MeetMe is installed and running properly.

The 1800 number I’m dialing into also has MeetMe prompts which ask for a participant passcode (I’m not sure if this is also an Asterisk based system). I will be able to enter the pass code, but when I receive a tone the line gets dropped. If I use an analog telephone connected to my legacy Panasonic PBX, i don’t experience the same kind of problem.

As for the logs, I can only provide at the moment a capture of my verbose logs from the start of dialing the FXO extension until the call hangs up when I hear the tone, I’m not really familiar on how to properly capture the logs from the dial plan:
