    Hi Michael.<br>
    <br>
    Yes, you are right, maybe the better is to use ESL. <br>
    My script is basically an IVR. When all the audio files are played,
    then wait until the user press a dtmf key or timeout occur. Because
    there are a lot of files to play based on caller ID, I wait for the
    user input at the end of the script, but prior to finish the script,
    because hangsup.<br>
    <br>
    I workaround this with:<br>
    <br>
    session.collectInput(onPlay, services, afterMenuTimeOut,
    totalTimeOut);<br>
    playTimeout(despedida)<br>
    <br>
    and return always &quot;true&quot; from &quot;onPlay&quot; callback.<br>
    <br>
    Respond to your question, this is the function I want to run in
    setTimeout:<br>
    <br>
    function playTimeout(despedida){<br>
        if (session.ready()) {<br>
            logger(&quot;TIMEOUT&quot;);<br>
            session.execute(&quot;sleep&quot;,&quot;400&quot;);<br>
            session.execute(&quot;playback&quot;, sonidos + &quot;/TIMEOUT.wav&quot;);<br>
            session.execute(&quot;sleep&quot;,&quot;400&quot;);<br>
            logger(despedida);<br>
            session.execute(&quot;playback&quot;, sonidos + &quot;/&quot; + despedida +
    &quot;.wav&quot;);<br>
            session.hangup();<br>
        }<br>
        exit(&quot;TIMEOUT&quot;);<br>
    }<br>
