This occurs often when directmedia (canreinvite) is in use, and the
media path has been redirected to be between the endpoints; when
endpoint A issues a BYE, Asterisk knows that endpoint B can no longer
send media directly to endpoint A, so it reinvites the media path back
to Asterisk... only to then hangup the call. It's not optimal, but it
shouldn't cause any harm.
