it's playing twice because of the second accept -- that's what it plays upon invalid entry. But you don't want any message on non-match.
You might want getdigits, a simpler way to get input without retry options.

Wait, are you using this for confirm of pickup for hunting to mobiles?
Doesn't http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Variable_group_confirm_file work for you? It seems to fit my use case.

I have the following in a lua script:

dtmf = session:playAndGetDigits(1,1,1,5000,"#",accept,accept,"\\d+")

The idea is that the caller hears "Call for Alex of Wibble
Corp"..."Press 1 to accept" and then he has 5s to press 1, otherwise
it's assumed that the call has gone to mobile voicemail.

What seems to be happening is:

the caller hears "Call for Alex of Wibble Corp"..."Press 1 to accept"
<pause 5s> "Press 1 to accept" <immediate hangup>

(I'm surprised that it says it twice, and ignores the <timeout> attribute)

Actually, I wouldn't mind something that went

"Call for Alex of Wibble Corp"..."Press 1 to accept" <pause 3s> "Press 1
to accept" <pause 3s> <hangup>

But telling the user to press 1 and IMMEDIATELY hanging up seems wrong!
