I have been trying to get audio from the sound card of the PC running piaf. Did all sorts of things to make sure gains were turned up, unmuted, checked devices, ... No luck. I did find other reports of issues with piaf and also with Centos. Brought back memories of the main reason I switched from Fedora to Ubuntu several years ago - lots of problems with audio. Anyway, I ran across this:
https://www.centos.org/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7570
And used the procedure referenced above that is here:
http://www.linwik.com/configuring_the_audio_and_updating_alsa_for_centos_and_rhel_6
I need to remove the repo and am not sure if I might have created other problems by doing this but...
Once I rebooted audio worked. At least this worked:
flite -t hello
aplay also works on wav files
However:
echo "Hello world" | festival --tts
gives an error:
Pulseaudio: Connection refused
Haven't figured that one out yet.
I found this but it doesn't seem to help:

My system info:
PIAF Installed Version = 2.0.6.4 under *HARDWARE* x
x FreePBX Version = 2.11.0.0rc1.8 x
x Running Asterisk Version = 11.3.0 x
x Asterisk Source Version = 11.3.0 x
x Zap/Dahdi Source Version = N/A x
x Libpri Source Version = 1.4.12 x
x IP Address = 192.168.15.180 on eth0 x
x Operating System = CentOS release 6.4 (Final) x
x Kernel Version = 2.6.32-358.6.1.el6.i686 - 32 Bit x
x Incredible Version = 11.3
Apparently not many people try to use audio on their piaf box? Or does it work ok for most people?
