I had a similar problem once while using ooh323 with Asterisk 1.4.XX.

What I did was to use the most recent version of H323plus with Asterisk 
and got better results with chan_h323.

As (AFAIK) OpenH323 was renamed to H323plus, and several improvements 
has been made to it, you might want to take a look at it.

Note: if you are building Asterisk from source, then the source expects 
a very old version of OpenH323 and PTLib.

You can take a look to the tasks performed by these scripts:
http://lists.digium.com/pipermail/asterisk-users/2011-January/258119.html
to see how to compile Asterisk with the latest version of H323Plus and 
PTlib.

If you need any additional information about the scripts, just let me know.
