I'm seeing similar behavior using the RECORD FILE command in AGI.  If a
silence timeout is specified, I get the same messages (replace 'ULAW'
with 'GSM') when the recording times out, whether the timeout is due to
maximum record time exceeded or the maximum silence exceeded.  If the
user ends the recording with # the errors do not occur, even when there
is a silence parameter.

I have only tried this over IAX (with no dummy timer), and I was just
settling down to install a SIP client to try when I read your message.

The good news for you is that when this happens in AGI it does not
appear to have any obvious adverse effects.  Asterisk spits back a
successful result string and continues with the script.
