Not sure, but the OP's description sounds very much like a problem I had 
with an itsp using g729. I spent a fair amount of time trying different 
codecs and g726 has been one of the best in terms of low bandwidth. That 
effort was from about six months ago. Could have certainly been the 
result of something totally different (jitterbuffer, etc). Since the 
itsp would not share any info at all about what they were running for an 
asterisk system, I 'bypassed' the issue by changing codecs.
