Well, I did some more playing around and uncommented the "format=slinear"
line in phone.conf.  This has resolved my problems.  I hope this helps
someone else out.

>
> I can pick up any extension and get a psuedo dial-tone.  I can call ext
> 500 for the demo, or 600 for the echo test.  Both work fine (I hear myself
> on the echo test, so audio's working both ways).  When I dial an actual
> extension (whether from another extension or after calling into asterisk),
> the phone on that extension will ring.  When I pick up the extension
> that's ringing though, both lines give a fast-busy and I get this error in
> the CLI:
>
>     -- Called phone2
>     -- Phone/phone2 is ringing
>     -- Phone/phone2 answered Zap/2-1

> reading: Input/output error
>     -- Hungup 'Phone/phone2'
>   == Spawn extension (default, 421, 1) exited non-zero on 'Zap/2-1'
>     -- Hungup 'Zap/2-1'
