I'm not familiar with the Polycoms, but I would guess that they have some
kind of web-based setup screens. Look for "silence suppression" or "VAD
(voice activity detection)" and set it to Off or Disabled.

Otherwise you could try visiting http://bugs.digium.com/view.php?id=5374
and apply the patch 2005-10-04-3-asynchronous.patch

It's the patch to channel.c that is the important part.
