I'm not glad this happened to you, but I'm glad to hear about the problem. I have the same problem, and I thought it was something specific to my setup. I even compiled OSLEC separately with the same results. The call completes, but there is absolutely no audio. It is completely silent. I suppose that is a pretty effective echo canceller. :-) I did not notice any errors in the console. If EC is removed, the audio works.

I have not experienced that. There seems to be a brief audio dropout every couple of seconds during a call, like a couple of packets are being dropped every now and then, but I haven't dug into it, yet.

I'm sorry to report that I am using libpri, but that's interesting. I'm curious about the source of the problem and why EC would be affected. I don't see a connection.

Exact same setup here. Hmm.

Sorry, I'm looking for a solution, myself. The echo over the T1 isn't all that bad here, but it would be nice to use EC.
