The two issues are only somewhat related. The RELEASE COMPLETE as an reply
to a SETUP after having sent a CALL PROCEEDING is probably not allowed by
the state transitions listen in q.931. 

The in-band announcement is more related to whether we have sent a
progress information element which states that in-band audio is available.  
I think Asterisk sends such a progress message almost as soon as possible.  
However, in this case the problem is a CALL PROCEEDING before the
RELEASE_COMPLETE answering teh SETUP. The fact that the CALL PROCEEDING
also includes a PROGRESS element is incidental.
