I have had similar issues.

To sort of resolve this I had to install a local name-server on the  
machine that contains the addresses asterisk tries to resolve  
(changing to using IP-addresses did not fix the issue for me either).

I would prefer an option in asterisk that tells it to not resolv more  
than once on each address.
