Asterisk doesn't forward SDP through, each leg is completely 
independent. Without configurability of avpf then if you call a device 
you have to either not offer it, offer it only, or offer both. Doing 
both will probably make many devices unhappy, as you have mentioned. So 
to have stuff really be functional you have to backport AVPF.
