I can get Asterisk to work with G722 and the sound is superior compared

It always says incompatible codec and what is this Siren14 and Siren22
with Polycom. Is this different to Asterisk’s Siren7 and Siren14? Is
this why I cannot get Siren to function?

Asterisk supports G.722.1 (also known as Siren7), and this can be configured in a config file as either 'g7221' or 'siren7'. Asterisk also supports G.722.1 Annex C (also known as Siren14), and this can be configured in a config file as either 'g7221c' or 'siren14'. G.722.1 is supported only at the 32 kbps bitrate, and G.722.1C is supported only at the 48 kbps bitrate. Asterisk does not support Siren22.

siren7 show version : Digium Siren7 Module Version 1.8.0_1.0.5
(optimized for barcelona_64)

siren14 show version : Digium Siren14 Module Version 1.8.0_1.0.5
(optimized for barcelona_64)

I found this document :
http://www.polycom.com/global/documents/whitepapers/codecs_white_paper.pdf
which is quite good.

It sais:

G.722.1. Also known as "Siren 7"

G.722.1 Annex C. Also known as "Siren14”

This doesn’t explain why the Polycom G7221_C doesn’t work with
Asterisk’s Siren14

G.722.1 doesn’t work with Asterisk’s Siren7

Am I just doing something wrong? Is my understand correct?

It's really hard to guess, since you don't post any configuration samples or log captures. In order to debug a problem like this, a 'sip debug' capture showing the SIP signaling and how Asterisk interpreted it would be required.
