asterisk users - Aug 2014 - Calls to voicemail drops after 41 seconds due to no rtp packets

Hello,
I have my provider dropping the calls after 41 seconds of not receiving any
RTP from my asterisk. Obviously there is no RTP back when the caller is
leaving a message in the voicemail. Is it possible to have asterisk
generate some RTP packet back?

There is a "transmit_silence" option in asterisk.conf which will cause
Asterisk to transmit silence during certain actions (such as recording). 
If you set this to yes it should resolve your issue.
