I want to do the following...<div><br></div><div>1. Play a long music file from a dialplan.</div><div>2. While the music is playing, I want to launch a Lua script to do some data dip.</div><div>3. Once the data is fetched and Lua exits, I want to interrupt the music and continue in the dialplan</div>
