Thilo,
Isn't the definition of a b2bua that the media streams pass it?
back-to-back-user-agent.

Anyway, not to be picky, Asterisk by default wants to be in the media
path. There are ways to release the signalling and media path
back to the clients, with canreinvite=yes, but that's not the default
behaviour.

A SIP proxy like SIP express router from iptel.org fits your
description better. And yes, SER works together with Asterisk.
