Three sites are experiencing ~10sec period of one-way audio. This happens several minutes into the call, and it is very intermittent (infrequent). It does not happen on inter-office calls but only on calls to/from the PSTN.

Occasionally, a spurt of white noise precedes the drop-out much like a cell phone drop-out.

One site uses one port of a Sangoma A102X (PCI-X). Another site uses a TE110P. The third site uses a TDM04B (with a TDM10B for the fax machine). All sites operate normally except for this intermittent problem.

Each machine has its USB drivers removed, and there is no sharing of interrupts. I've set interrupt latency on the NICs down to 32.

These machines are dedicated to Asterisk, and there are no other server processes (web, mail, etc.).

I was thinking interrupt starvation on the PCI cards. We upgraded one site from a Dell desktop to a Dell server (with A102X), and the problem mostly went away but did occur twice on Monday.

The commonality between all sites is Asterisk/Zaptel 1.4.0. The TDM04B site started reporting this problem after the upgrade to 1.4.0.

Thoughts?
