The reason I don’t use sip algs is because they have a have a function that 
isn’t required. And a complexity that messes things up. No exploit has yet been 
found for rtp for 20 years and it has been open to the world. For whatever 
reason you can’t get your head around this being a valid option so then you are 
jumping to a bug when you freely admit your lack of familiarity 

This may be your scenario 

https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/461320/nf-conntrack-sip-does-not-work-sometimes-restarting-iptables-usually-fixes-it

You are adding a dependency on the firewall that you don’t need using 
configuration you are not sure of. That is never a reliable situation to be in. 

Why would nftables have a bug? Many people use it around the world and it works 
well. What is the likelihood of a bug in this scenario 

The alternative is a misconfiguration, and you are not very familiar with the 
configuration and new to nftables. Which one is more likely?

The above issue sounds like yours but it could be something else

You can research and find the config error, or somehow you can prove a bug or 
you can remove the issue by just allowing rtp through

All of these are your choices. To me the config error is most likely as I have 
very rarely found a bug. It’s almost always config
