Hello,
I had the same problem. I solved it by putting the context of the phone in sip.phone as the same
context where the "hint" statement is: i.e.:


sip.conf

[1713]
context=phones



extensions.conf

[phones]

;1713
exten => 1713,hint,sip/1713
exten => 1713,1,Playback(transfer,skip)         ; "Please hold while..."
exten => 1713,2,Macro(stdexten,1713,sip/1713)

hope it will work for you too....

I have set up Hint on all my extensions, according to all I have found out, the correct way, however I do not get anything on the phone. Is there something I am missing? I have one of these snom 220's with the side car, and another 220. I am running an RPM version of asterisk and have also tried this on a compiled version of asterisk from the CVS tree. Neither way did it work, is there some thing else I am missing? I set it up as Destination with the sip URL of the extension and my dial plan looks like this:

;1713
exten => 1713,hint,sip/1713
exten => 1713,1,Playback(transfer,skip)         ; "Please hold while..."
exten => 1713,2,Macro(stdexten,1713,sip/1713)

as you can see I use a Macro but I do not try to put the hint in the
Macro, also I have tried this without the Macro.  I have rebooted the
phone and restarted asterisk after each change.  Can someone please
help me out?

Thanks a ton,
-Lance

The extension is how asterisk maps SIP URLs to chunks of your dialplan
-- if you program a button on a snom to "dest
<sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>", the phone will use that same URL for
both dialing and subscribing to extension state.  Unless you have a
phone that lets you specify different URLs for dialing and subscribing
to state, they have to match in asterisk.

There has to be a SIP URL for the phone to subscribe to -- if you put:

   exten => zap4,hint,Zap/4

in your extensions.conf (with no zap4,1,... entry) it wouldn't be
dialable (although the phone would still try if you pushed it) but
would have a valid SIP URL.
