asterisk users - Sep 2010 - rtp problem with 1.8.0-rdc1

Hi.  I am having a very strange problem --aren't they all -- with the
release candidate.  I have softphone which talks to asterisk from behind
nat -- the asterisk is on a public ip -- and when I hit mute on the
softphone, all rtp traffic ceases!  Now, a version which does work is
r281875, this does not happen in that vrsion, but right after that this
strange thing starts and is not fixed in the current one.

Any assistance here would be appreciated.

We're probably going to need some sort of debugging information such as a 
console trace and SIP (I assume chan_sip) debug.

Why is it a problem? It sounds like Asterisk does silence suppression.
