I solved this in my application (adult chat billed to a credit card) by
writing an AGI that created a thread to play the audio ("Please wait while
your card is being verified") while the AGI mainline queried the credit card
processor. Most of the time I get the cc response before the audio finishes
so the authorization appears to be instantaneous.

The "key" was that the mainline cannot interact with Asterisk (i.e. 
"verbose" while the audio thread is executing.

Thanks in advance,
