2.When the Auto Attendant answers a call and transfers the caller to an extension; the caller will hear a pre-recorded message saying “One moment please”, and then hear your music.

Music-on-Hold and Call Forwarding to Remote Extensions:

If you are using the telephone company’s 3-Way Calling/Conference service (Same Line Connect) to activate TalkSwitch’s Call Forwarding, callers will not hear your ‘music’ when being forwarded to a Remote Extension. When calls are forwarded, the caller is put on hold by the telephone company central office switch rather than at TalkSwitch. Therefore, the caller hears silence while being transferred.

A system prompt will indicate that callers will hear silence while the system tries to locate their party. This prompt helps explain to callers why all of a sudden they may hear silence for an extended period of time before possibly connecting to the Remote Extension. This prompt cannot be disabled.
