[Asterisk-Users] Native Bridging drops call on release

[Robert Goodyear]

Has anyone experienced a dropped call when bridging? I get an "OK, 
ready to transfer" from both channels, but when asterisk releases the 
call, it is dropped immediately by the upstream provider. I've tested 
against another provider and it works fine, and it also works fine 
across two different providers, including TO and FROM the one that's 
acting buggy.

Here's a diagram of the my QA testing, where A and B are two IAX2 VoIP 
service providers:

A > A = OK
A > B = OK
B > A = OK
B > B = FAIL


I want to rule out anything on my end first, in case the bug is being 
exposed by something sloppy I've done. Here's the log:
