Not that I really got a clue, but could it be related to the fact that the
server seems to be running on an RFC1918 IP, 10.1.22.44, ie behind a NAT
setup ?
I never played with the VOD solution, but you should probably compare the
describe messages that you see when its working and when it is not working.
Another thing I find strange is the c= IN IP 0.0.0.0, which is more due to
my ignorance about VOD solution than anything else.

Back when I had a little I thought that I needed a lot
A little was over rated, but a lot was a little too complicated
You see-Zero didn't satisfy me. A million didn't make me happy
That's when I learned a lesson. That it's all about your perception
