I'm trying to setup a proxy and have installed rtpproxy.

Trying to start it via: rtpproxy -l _your_public_ip_ -s udp:localhost:7722 throws the warning:
rtpproxy: running this program as superuser in a remote control mode is strongly not recommended, as it poses serious security threat to your system. Use -u option to run as an unprivileged user or -F is you want to run as a superuser anyway.

Will Kamailio accept WITH_NAT etc. if I run rtpproxy with -u as an unprivileged user?

If you want to figure out the problems yourself then a packet sniffer
(tcpdump, wireshark, ngrep) is your friend. Basically you watch out for
certain kind of packets which should be there, watch where they are sent
to, and if this is correct (compare with IP adresses signaled in SIP
payload).

"No sound" is usually a NAT problem which can be solved by activating a
media relay (e.g. rtpproxy) and rewriting the SDP to route the media
stream via the rtpproxy.

For message inspection I prefer ngrep:

Just for the SIP traffic:
ngrep -d any -P "" -t -q -Wbyline port 5060

For SIP traffic and RTP (usually both use UDP):

ngrep -d any -P "" -t -q -Wbyline "" udp


Check out the SDP (body of INVITE and 200 OK) and verify if the IP
addresses signaled in c= line and port in m= line are correct (public
vs. private IP).

Verify also if you see UDP/RTP packets sent by the SIP clients.

If the clients are behind NAT, activate NAT traversal in the config:
define WITH_NAT (or similar)
