Hi,

we have a problem when it comes to making a call via mybuddy. what we are
trying to do is to establish a call between two cell phones through sipxecs.
this should be accomplished through this command in mybuddy:
'call (cell-number-1) (cell-number-2)', where the first number is the phone
that will be called, and the second number is the phone that should make the
call. as soon as this command is entered in mybuddy, sipxecs tries to make
two calls. first call should go to the caller (second number), and the
second call should go to the callee (first number).

the problem arises when the first call is made (to the caller). for some
reason, sipxecs always uses PCMU as codec. since our ITSP doesn't support
PCMU, the call doesn't go through (or so that's what our ITSP says is the
problem). now, we have tried making modifications in sip trunking service by
putting PCMA on the first place, thus making it the preferred choice. it
didn't work, which is surprising because our ITSP uses PCMA. then we tried
to remove the PCMU. The result was even worse, because sipxecs didn't even
send the invite from its services to the ITSP's server. we also tried to
delete all default codecs from the sip trunking service, which should enable
all codecs (it should negotiate with the ISTP for the codec), but it again
used PCMU, although our ISTP clearly doesn't support it.

in the end, we have tried removing the PCMU from the 'media services'
service. it had absolutely no effect, it still used PCMU.

this problem arises only when we make calls through mybuddy. normal calls
use PCMA without any problem. also, when we used other ITSPs, the call
through mybuddy goes normally and everything is fine (it uses PCMU, but the
international ITSP supports it). the second call (to the callee) was made
through the 'problematic' ITSP, but this time the call was made with PCMA,
hence everything is fine.

it seems that only the first call that is made through sip trunk (by
mybuddy) always uses PCMU, but the second uses codecs in the order of their
priority.

does anybody knows how t fix this problem?


p.s.
we have also tried making calls between internal extension and a cell phone.
the idea is to find out will the second call (to the callee) have the same
problem, since the first call doesn't go through sip trunk. the problem was
identical. the first call (to the caller) didn't use sip trunk, and
everything was fine until the second call was made (to the cell phone).
since it went through the trunk, the problem repeated....
