sorry for my delayed answer. I was guessing it was audio conversion becuase it 
only happens when the call involves PSTN and that is the most common problem. 
My next guess would probably be interupts, but I saw someone already replied 
with that. I would also check how you have echo cancellation set up (if its 
software then that may be causing it)

Thanks for your reply, Jason.  Two further questions:
1) I thought all networking would be done in the card, not taxing CPU much?
2) I get reasonable quality (and no significant network blockage) when I
answer call from Console.  In this case, Asterisk also needs to "transcode"
audio into the sound card, right?  G.711 is supposed to be the least taxing
CODEC, and I'm pretty sure I'm using G.711 between VoIP extensions (hence no
transcoding between VoIP and FXO. (disallow => all, allow = ulaw)
