asterisk users - Oct 2008 - Meetme "talker optimization" always on even when no "o" option present.

Hi all,

      After loading 1.6.0.1, I notice that I always have the "VOX"
effect
on Meetme conferences whether I have the "o" option set in the dial
plan
or not.  Is anyone else seeing this?

      Although I'm now running 1.6.0.1, I'm also seeing this on a system
still running 1.6.0beta9.


           Thanks.

Can you describe the effect?  I am seeing odd behavior
when I have PSTN calls in a conference, oddly most
noticeable if the calling party is on a blackberry, but
it also impacts other cell phones and land lines.

My calls route through a Cisco voice gateway and one
Hint is that Asterisk tells me to turn off Comfort Noise
for that peer (not possible as far as I can tell)

All callers are G711, with very low latency and QOS
between the gateway and Asterisk.
