In my experience "Not Acceptable" errors happen because the two 
endpoints cannot agree on a codec.  Try allowing all the codecs in your 
softphone and in Asterisk sip.conf [general] do a disallow=all and an 
allow=ulaw.    I suggest you do this in [general] when testing because 
it can sometimes be hard to make sure that a peer/friend/user entry is 
actually matching the incoming call.  Once you get it working you can 
refine it.

You could be having a NAT issue too, but I don't think it is related to 
your 606 error.
