Like to note that SDP in H.248 allows to support asymmetric media formats (and 
thus direction-individual codec types), due to local and remote specific media 
control.

Thus, an H.248 media endpoint could support asymmetric codecs with SIP UAs. 
 
Of course, this doesn't solve your problem with SIP/SDP ...
