So i got it to work and playing on 1 speaker no problem. Within FreePBX i set up a group for paging, maybe not best way but it seems to work when wanting to broadcast to all speakers.
I associated an extension 9000 to the group so we could just call all speakers through that single extension.
I was using your recommend call file script from another thread.
Channel: PJSIP/9000
Application: musiconhold
Data: musiciwanttoplay,120
I created a musiconhold category called musiciwanttoplay and when I exchange 9000 with 2001. I experience no issue. It plays as expected for the duration I desire.
But when I try and call the group, 9000, I get no activity over the group as I was expecting.
I am assuming that this trick requires a pickup, and extension 9000, since it is a page group, may not in itself initiate a ‘pick up’ for the call file to operate.
What is the preferred method to do this to multiple speakers at all times?
