Hi,
I am using asterisk 1.4.21.2 and zaptel 1.4.12.1. Recently we brought a new server and i am trying to setup asterisk and zaptel to use Meetme conferencing application.
Some times Meetme application is not working. Even when the user is connected to the bridge and talking, no audio is heard. When i do asterisk stop and start i see an error as shown below

[root@asterisk ~]#asterisk -cvvvvvvnd

[Jul 2 10:48:02] ERROR[17258]: asterisk.c:2982 main: Asterisk has detected a problem with your Zaptel configuration and will shutdown for your protection. You have options:
1. You only have to compile Zaptel support into Asterisk if you need it. One option is to recompile without Zaptel support.
2. You only have to load Zaptel drivers if you want to take advantage of Zaptel services. One option is to unload zaptel modules if you don’t need them.
3. If you need Zaptel services, you must correctly configure Zaptel.[/code]
I had to remove and load ‘ztdummy’ module again to make Meetme functional.
In some cases asterisk is not releasing ‘ztdummy’ module after exiting from the Meetme application. When i do ‘lsmod’ usage count of ztdummy is 13. I think on an idle sate, mostly usage count will be 3.
[root@asterisk ~]# lsmod | grep zaptel
zaptel 190980 13 ztdummy
crc_ccitt 6337 1 zaptelSome times if i load ztdummy, Playback is not playing the audio file.
I spent enough time debugging the issue and searching in the forums. I could not find a solution.

bogomips : 5866.65I have seen similar kind of issue reported in asterisk bug tracker. But, it was closed saying kernel issue.
https://issues.asterisk.org/print_bug_page.php?bug_id=11153
Initially i used PAE kernel. Still i see the same issue after changing to non-PAE kernel
