In days long past, I wrote code to interact with modems, including dialing
and connecting via SLIP or PPP, but also to send audio messages.

Unfortunately it was on Windows and at a previous employer so I no longer
have access to the code, and I do not remember the details.   Modem work is
definitely doable but so old it may not have stack overflow help for you.
