It might be related to the phones you use; some models seem to have an
internal timeout, after which the call will be rejected - this forces
the Dial() to terminate. You might try to find information about that:
It might be configurable in the phone.

I am not well informed about trixbox, but I assume you can get an
asterisk console by "asterisk -r". Use that and "verbose 10" to retrieve
the events that occur when the timeout falls. That might help you find
the culprit.
