[Asterisk-Users] Outbound IAX calls stop ringing remote phone, yet can still pick up

[Eric Wieling]

I don't know, but sweeping the problem under the rug with "r" is not a 
solution except as a last resort.  Regardless of if he ends up using "r" 
or not he needs to know what other problems "r" will cause.

What we really need is a console output of a call that happens with 
(hopefully with a note where the ringback actually stops).
