[Asterisk-Users] FW: channel offhook state

[Doug Reid - Stormcorp]

We had the same thing until we started using Voicetronix, it seems that this
happens when calls collide i.e... incoming call with an 
outgoing? We added a script that did a soft hang-up after a call was ended
and that seemed to work ok.
