I think not since the audio is coming from the festival command not asterisk.
I would try this, Exten => s,1,SetVar(FILENAME=FESTIVAL-${EPOCH}) Exten => s,2,AGI(festival-bg|${FILENAME}|Text for festival to speak) Exten => s,3,BackGround(${FILENAME}) The AGI script would take two args, the filename to put the sound file in and then pass the phrase to festival. I don't know what format festival outputs to file in but you could then run the output thru sox to convert it to gsm.
