Regarding this I've read the specs linked to in detail, but I can find no
mention anywhere of any change that implies or states that no ring time will be
recorded anymore in Asterisk 13 and that all times in start and answer columns
will now be equal for all calls.
Can this be because I nowhere use the Answer() application in my dialplan when
dialing out?

Hi Joshua
Thank you for the reply. I'll go read the spec in detail (which is probably
what I should have done in the first place anyway.)
Yes, I am using local channels and generating the calls via AJAM by calling the
Originate AMI / AJAM application. The "local" extension that is calling out is
defined as
local/xxxx@local
where xxxx is the extension number, e. g. 3509, 3175, or whatever.
So my AJAM Originate command is
ActionID=201901080814t4qn82v
Action=Originate
Channel=local/3916@local
Exten=0825588996
Context=local
Priority=1
CallerID=3916_ctd
Account=201901080814t4qn82v
ChannelID=201901080814t4qn82v
OtherChannelID=201901080814t4qn82vB
Variable=__CallLimit=3600
Async=true
I'm not calling the Answer application in the dialplan when dialing out.
Effectively the flow is the user clicks dial in our external application. This
sends the above AJAM command to Asterisk, with parameters as specified.
Asterisk originates the call on his extension as passed in the AJAM command, he
picks up and the call then goes into the local context and gets routed. The
STDOUT macro is called which does some prep (lots of 1.8 legacy stuff still in
here) and this then calls VCCALLOUT, which contains the call to the dial()
application.
VCCALLOUT calls
exten=>s,n(dialNoLimit),Dial(${chantouse}/${numtodial},60,TL(3900000:60000:30000))
${chantouse} will be something like SIP/sip-trunk-name ${numtodial} will be the
target number, e. g. 27825588996
to dial out.

Detail:
My local context (simplified):
[local]
exten=>_082xxxxxxx,1,Macro(STDOUT,SIP/centra-out,27${EXTEN:1})

exten=>h,n(done),noOp(Call Completed)
and the VCCALLOUT macro:
