[VoIP] Asterisk won't play sound (voice prompt) files

[Jack Ryan]

I have since installed all sound file formats.

Playback() and SayDigits() result in silence and the same error messages.
The logic of searching for an existing format seems to be common to all
sound output applications. Even so, I tried adding the file extension and
the complete path. The result is the same.

Grrr
