In my opinion, When the ACK is lost, the gateway should still let the
media pass through when the SDP offer/answer is complete & keep on
resending the 200 OK response back, because it might be possible that
gateway gets ACK after few retransmissions & it would be inappropriate
to block the media for that duration from the user point of view.
When there is no response from the User A for all the retransmissions
the transaction timeouts & gateway should terminate the call with the
User A by sending BYE.
