[Asterisk-Users] Asterisk Disconnecting after 30sec when someone leaving VM

[William M Conlon]

I had very mysterious hangups of PSTN outbound calls which I traced  
to zapata.conf.  I had increased rx_gain = 10 and tx_gain = 10  
because volume was always low because Polycom phone was always  
resetting the volume.  Anyway, I patched my sip.cfg for Polycom so my  
volume would stay at the user's setting, and reset the zap gains to  
0, and my hangups went away.  [Maybe the high gain was causing an  
output to saturate and a small amount of silence looked like a  
polarity reversal  - SWAG].
