I wonder if your issue and mine are related somehow. I have a asterisk server with 4 FXO cards in it, and when a call comes in one ZAP channel, then dials out another, I hear what could be described as a steam engine starting up. It starts off kinda slower/ quiet, then quickly (in about 2-4 seconds) completely over powers the line.
The only way I could stop it was by adjusting the gains. rxgain=-8.5 txgain=4 Seemed to do the trick. As did: rxgain=-6.5 txgain=1 An rxgain of even -8.0 or -6.0 in either case would result in this "steam engine" sound. -8.5 or -6.5 would make it go away completely. I'm using a CVS checkout from yesterday, and I tried with both echotraining=800 and turning echo cancellation off completely. Neither made any difference. It would be really nice to be able to use a positive rxgain value. I haven't tried with the echo app, but using just one FXO card works fine with almost any rx/txgain value. As soon as the call utilizes two FXO card at the same time, the "steam engine" sound occurs.
