It is possible to maintain two distinct IAX2 connections between a
pair of servers, but each connection will have to authenticate itself
using a different username - unless someone has a trick here, which
I doubt.
Your problem is that you have two incoming connections which are
both claiming to be "voicepulse". Perhaps you could ask VoicePulse
to use a different login name for one of the accounts.
Why not put all of the incoming DDIs on one account? I'm sure you
could find a way to share the bill, as you probably know how many of
these lines belong to each of you. You could still maintain separate
accounts for outgoing calls, of course.
