TE410P - one way audio, after "rpm -qa" on RedHat 9

After much trouble, I can consistently reproduce this error.

Anyone have any idea why all Zap channels on my TE410P would develop one
way audio after "rpm -qa" has been run while asterisk is running?

If I reboot, run "rpm -qa" first then load asterisk and modules all is
OK
when "rpm -qa" runs the second time.

However, If I reboot, load asterisk and modules then run "rpm -qa"
asterisk is still aware of on-hook/off-hook status and ab signaling bits
in both directions and can transmit audio OK.  It just will not receive
any audio at all on any of the 96 channels of the TE410P.

The problem surfaced, by my test dialer failing every morning at 4:03am...
Yes RedHat 9's /etc/cron.daily/rpm was the culprit..  ?????

Any Ideas?

Thanks

When I read your post I dialled  3619 (It's the same number as the clock
in France) on my Grandstream nothing at all, Voicemail the same, I think
this has happened before and I never connected it with cron, but I'm not
using RH I'm giving MDK a last chance. I have not gone in to it deeply
but have thought of restarting asterisk at cron time. If someone's on
the phone at that time they're only talking to themselves anyway.
