asterisk users - Aug 2005 - Polycom and Presence

I am currently utilizing Polycom IP600 phones and presense.  I have
placed the hint directives in and everything seems to work fine.  But
this only works for a short period of time.  After about 30 minutes,
the extensions do not see when others are on the phone.

Has anyone seen this type of behavior before?  I am currently
utilizing v1.5.2 of the polycom software and the cvs-head release from
8/3/05.

Thanks in advance.

I have seen somewhat similar behavior, but I think its generally linked to 
me messing with the asterisk server.  If, for example I restart asterisk and 
have voice mail waiting on a phone, it is right then that I will hear the 
reminder 'chirp' that the polycoms make to let you know its waiting.  I 
think somethings are reset when I reload the chan_sip.  Now this is just a 
guess, since I never seem to notice the presence state when I do this, or no 
one was actually on the phone.

I have my line 2 and line 3 positions set up to show me two other sip 
extensions, so I don't have to press the 'buddies' button to see
them.  To
reset it back to working, I just press 'directories' -> Contact
Directory ->
And edit the entry (without changing anything really), and pressing the SAVE 
button, and its all back again.

Would you mind emailing me a small sample of how you got this to work?  
I haven't been able to find any decent example to go by..

thanks,
