Asterisk takes 10 seconds to play a 3-second audio file using Playback()

Hello all,

Asterisk Playback () application plays a 3-second audio file in 10 seconds. I stored the .sln audio file, and in the logs, I found out that Asterisk is showing .slin

Is this something with transcoding, or something with CPU overload, or is on the device side some knowledge would be helpful to resolve this issue

You need to narrow it down. Does it only happen on this file, or does it happen with the included sound files?

Also need evidence that the file really is only 48kB, and whether the delay is at the start or end.

That file happen to sit on remote mounted storage?
