I've not tested the x101p card with the newest patch. I'd have to guess
your rxgain is set to high.
For my tdm04b fxo card, I've commented out the gain adjustments from
zapata.conf totally and let them default. No echo here at all. Every-
thing else is stock compile (no aggressive, etc).
Seems to me (but I could be wrong) that I seen some code somewhere
that implied there might be some auto-gain things going on. Certainly
won't hurt to comment them out and restart everything. If memory
serves correctly, need to stop asterisk and reload the zaptel stuff
as well.
