Attempts to manually load res_rtp_asterisk.so fail:

Is this a bug or do I need to make a change when using Asterisk 15.4.0 instead of 15.3.0?

You need to ensure the res_pjproject.so module is also loaded, as it provides ICE/STUN/TURN functionality.

Loading res_pjproject.so allows res_rtp_asterisk.so to load (res_pjproject.so is unhappy that pjproject.conf is not present, but creating an empty pjproject.conf appears to suffice).

Upon looking at modules.conf, I found that res_pjproject.so was set to noload. Removing the entry (and creating an empty pjproject.conf) appears to have corrected the problem.

Thanks!
