set in your config file the global parameter:

syn_branch=0

On the other hand, the behavior of the devises used by carrier is 
completely broken. ACK can have a different path than INVITE, so there 
should be no match done on Via branch parameter. Since it is ACK for 
200OK, it has to be matched for dialog. Having the RFC3261 cookie in the 
branch parameter, it has to be matched with (callid, from tag, to tag).

Cheers,
Daniel
