Where's the fax sound coming from?

Hello,
When I call into TB 2.2.12 I hear a fax tone "sometimes" although there are no fax machines attached to any of the lines or extensions. Is there a bug with the trixbox fax detection? Where's this sound coming from? There are no Zaptel cards, all lines are coming through AudioCodes MP118.

Ok. It's marmosets. Specifically, electronic marmosets. They've been "bred" to make the fax tones inside your server. They "eat" faxes that come in to your computer. Since you've not set up any fax extensions they get hungry and make the noises even when there are no faxes. The only way to fix this is to periodically send faxes to your trixbox to keep them satiated.
There's your answer. Hope it's to your satisfaction.
