Hi Brian,

in OpenSER 1.3.x this is a know issue. If you've several SRV records with the 
same wight, then the requests are not forwarded equally to all of them. If i 
remember correctly it just uses the one that is returned from the DNS server 
first.

This is fixed in kamailio 1.4.X and also the upcoming 1.5.0 release, it will 
choose randomly from all SRV records.

Cheers,

Henning
