I believe canreinvite=yes is the default option unless you set it
to canreinvite=no

I would leave it set to yes unless there is some reason to change it, 
for example the phone is behind NAT, or transfers etc don't work 
correctly without it being set to no.

If it's still not doing the right thing, then it's worth also
checking the nat= option

There are also other settings which can cause asterisk to stay in the media 
path, as BOTH sip devices need canreinvite=yes, otherwise it will stay in 
the media path. Specifying certain options on the Dial() cmd may also cause 
it to stay in the media path.
