>> Well, by letting the proxy handle authentication the INVITE tranction i closed without Asterisk knowing about it. So the ACK sent from the proxy and from Asterisk is for the same transaction, which messes things up. Asterisk does not know anything about the second invite. Letting the proxy handle authentiction breaks the SIP protocol in bad ways and is generally not a good solution.

You are missing the fact that the ACK sent by Asterisk is already sent by the proxy. The INVITE w/AUth have a different cseq than the ACK.

Won't the second ACK on the same transaction just be ignored, while it waits for an ACK on the new transaction?
