I had a situation that required this functionality -- processing a credit
card could take a second or two and we didn't want 'dead air' for our user
experience.
I created a pthread to play 'Please hold on while we process your card and
get ready for a good time...' while the main program continued with the
card authorization.
Most of the time the auth completed before the audio finished so it
appeared to be instantaneous to the caller.
The only caveat is to not interact (stdin/stdout) with Asterisk until
'stream file' in the thread completed.
