I can think of a round about way,

run festival and create wav/gsm and play resultant output as background
:-)

Well that is one way, but, unless you had the Festival output
pre-stored, you would have a delay whilst the output was being generated
and before you could present it as Background.  If you want the Festival
output to be dynamic then that delay would be unacceptable.

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.

Is it possible to run the Festival command in the same manner as the
Background command so that it can be interrupted by caller key presses?
