I would avoid using zapata.conf on the AA50 as it is manipulated during 
the boot process.  The place to set these parameters is in the general 
section of users.conf (which is where the gui places them.)   

How is your unit connected to the PSTN.  If you are using an analog input, 
you will see its associated led flash when it detects ringing from the 
PSTN.  This may help you in determining when the ring is actually 
occurring on the AA50.  

I'd also encourage you to get in touch with the support group at Digium 
as they are quite adept at getting over these types of issues.
