	result := playAction.GetResult()
	if result.Successful {
		signalwire.Log.Info("Play was successful\n")
	}
}

resultDial.Call.OnPlayFinished = MyOnPlayFinished
playAction, err := resultDial.Call.PlayAudioAsync("https://cdn.signalwire.com/default-music/welcome.mp3")
if err != nil {
	signalwire.Log.Error("Error occurred while trying to play audio\n")
}
```

#### GetState
