The first server that I set up asterisk on had the same problem.  I was
using BudgeTones and a couple X100P's.  Internal calls had no echo, etc,
but calls over the X100P's had tons of echo for 10-15 sec.  We also got
a beeping sound.

However, since the problem didn't seem widespread among X100P users, we
decided it might be our server hardware, which while decent spec wise,
was on the cheap end quality wise.  We got some nicer hardware, and the
problem went away.
