 <br>I have been trying to get lua to play a message from a WAV file. I have tried session:execute(&quot;playback&quot;, main_msg) and session:streamFile(ivr_invalid_msg) but neither of them play any music to the caller. I tried both to answer and preAnswer the call first but it made no difference. However if I put the same file into the XML dialplan and play it with the commands below I hear the music fine. <br>

&lt;action application=&quot;set&quot; data=&quot;playback_terminators=#&quot;/&gt;<br>&lt;action application=&quot;playback&quot; data=&quot;${401_sound_file_path}&quot;/&gt;<br> <br>The issue only seems to be from lua when playing any type of wav file and those files are definitelly there as can be read by the XML<br>

But there is no mention of the streamFile command. I have had similar issue with the PlayAndGetDigits command.<br>Is there something that I need to enable in lua so that is can playback messages to the caller.<br> <br>Many thanks to anyone who can help.<br>
