Actually, I have been wanting to figure this out for some time now. You 
can use clock=pit to keep the timer stable in a VM. However, the problem 
still exists.

MikeJ helped to figured out that the culprit is actually the vmware 
bridge. Change the network type to NAT and it will "just work". Mike 
says that if the soft phone was not on the same box as the host system 
that it would work a little better. I will test with a native linux 
bridge and xen in a few days. =]
