A couple of ways ...

Play the sounds from the dialplan, within the context/extension you 
place the calls to.

or

Within the dialplan use the AGI command, which will allow invoke your 
asteriskjava service with fastagi protocol, then you can handle the 
sounds/dtmf as you like. This gives you a procedural rather than state 
table way of hadling calls.
