Funny.  The first thing I always do after a reboot is call in from my
cell to make sure things work.  But last night I rebooted and immediately
tried dialing out (with a TDM842B) and got:

WARNING[2720]: app_dial.c:1721 dial_exec_full: Unable to create channel of type 'DAHDI' (cause 34 - Circuit/channel congestion)

Restarting all of Asterisk or 'dahdi restart' didn't matter.  Neither FXO
card would make an outgoing call until it had received an incoming one.
This with DAHDI 2.2.0.2.
