You are looking for a SIP proxy; Asterisk is not a SIP proxy, and no
amount of configuration will convince it to act like one.

Asterisk never "sends along" re-INVITEs, because the two channels
involved in an Asterisk "call" are distinct. If the codecs are
mismatched between the two call legs, Asterisk will try to transcode them.

The 'directrtpsetup' feature is still marked *experimental*, and that is
primarily because it defeats much of Asterisk's normal behavior; in
addition, there a quite a few normal, working call scenarios for which
it will fail... so it's there, but if you use it, you can expect
difficulties.
