I've experienced this once or twice and narrowed it down to the Google 
Voice server. It would just refuse to send the information about where 
to send media. Call again and it would work fine. I compared the traffic 
and saw no difference. The Google Voice platform is very ... 
interesting. I've even had this happen using the Google Talk plug-in.

The Google Talk and Google Voice support doesn't use ICE like proper 
Jingle support. Google has their own and we have basic support for it. I 
would be very interested in seeing this error message.

There is a completely documented configuration file which includes every 
option (motif.conf.sample), and the wiki page does normally work for 
people. As this is a new channel driver and not in widespread use I'm 
unsurprised there is little additional documentation.

Is it working reliably? The signaling between both should be the same so 
it would be very weird if it also did not have the same issue. Of course 
you would be hitting different servers in the Google network.
