No, syn_branch is a global parameter, add it somewhere at the top of your config file.

So branch in Via should not be used to match the dialog, but call-id, from-tag and to-tag. It would be also good ask the vendor to support properly sip rfc, other sip UAs may     not have this configuration option.

The "branch" tag value is not a unique number so the end point thinks the ACK is belong to the previous call. This causes the active calls fail after 15 min (right after the ACK message for re-INVITE passed by kamailio proxy).
