Same thing here for some calls (randomly, seems not to depend on the
number called, but I do not keep statistics of it). I have been to lazy
to investigate (it seems only my personal SIP provider does this, but
the other SIP lines my * is connected to) -- I think there is a Dial()
option that makes sure that a "ringing" sound is provided even if the
upstream provider does not send it. See the voip-info.org page about
Dial(), it should be covered there.
