Well, I've no idea how to do that. I can duplicate the problem every 
time on my system in one step, but I have no idea how to suggest you 
test it or if it requires my particular configuration or Aastra 
phones.  I can do almost anything in Windows, most anything on a Mac 
and almost nothing on a Linux box except make and install Asterisk 
from source and edit the Asterisk configuration files.  You often 
make the assumption that just because I use Asterisk I know Linux. It 
would be nice, but I've made my living doing DOS and then Windows 
support since DOS 2.1 and for me, Linux is just something I need to 
run my Asterisk box.

I'm happy to help, but I need help to do it.
