James,
That is definitely not normal.  I suggest the following:
- Make sure that you're signalling is ok (if you're not sure, post the ngrep output of a call setup). Do you use auth in ser? RADIUS? exec_dset?  Make sure that the answer times are ok.
- Use ethereal or some other listener at one of the client ends to see what's going on
g-)
