That's not the case when using "playback" command, because the next priority
is executed until the audio file ends playing. I want to evaluate some
variables while caller hears the audio file.
Any ideas?
Look at the Background() application. It does just what you are asking for.
I'm surprised no-one else has mentioned this.
Are you sure it does that?
I'm under the impression that it waits until the sound(s) have finished
playing before moving on to the next priority. (While "listening" for
digits to be pushed, then be dialled)

[Synopsis]
Play a file while awaiting extension
[Description]
Background(filename1[&filename2...][|options[|langoverride][|context]]):
This application will play the given list of files while waiting for an
extension to be dialed by the calling channel. To continue waiting for
digits after this application has finished playing files, the WaitExten
application should be used. The 'langoverride' option explicity specifies
which language to attempt to use for the requested sound files. If a
'context' is specified, this is the dialplan context that this application
will use when exiting to a dialed extension. If one of the requested
sound files does not exist, call processing will be terminated.
