Doug,

For some reason only "playback" works. "localplay" does not. The node 
I'm connecting to is the local server and is connected to a radio port 
and defined in the iax client.

I looked at the saytime.pl script and doesn't work either. I changed the 
perl script to use playfile thru my local node, and it does work.

When I configured the BBB the first time, I used the configuration 
settings as-is, only changing the predefined node to my local node and 
changing passwords etc. The node works fine, it just the localplay that 
doesn't.

I am currently using usbradio for now.
