Hello,

it is only local nftables with nf_conntrack_sip on the asterisk
server. Probably a kernel bug? It did not trigger with previous
providers since they had working SIP ALG. Now I hear no audio in both
directions because outgoing rtp stream from asterisk goes to private
address space and incoming stream is blocked. So the outgoing rtp
could not be learnt to send to nat addess.
