Rolf,
As a matter of fact things got switched for me now:
My Ubuntu linphone(c) version: 3.1.2 works well now. The FreeBSD's is acting up.

me@ubuntu:~$ uname -a
Linux 2.6.31-20-generic #58-Ubuntu SMP Fri Mar 12 05:23:09 UTC 2010 i686 GNU/Linux
me@ubuntu:~$ linphonec --version
version: 3.1.2

[me@freebsd ~]$ uname -a
FreeBSD freebsd.math 8.0-RELEASE FreeBSD 8.0-RELEASE #0: Sat Nov 21 15:48:17 UTC 2009 <email address hidden>:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/GENERIC i386
[me@freebsd ~]$ linphonec --version
version: 1.7.1

I will try upgrading linphone port on FreeBSD.

The only "issue" i see now is that linphone like ekiga does not want to cooperate reliably with alsa without pulseaudio. I had to get rid of pulseaudio. Say, if phonon (via paused/stopped amarok) engages the card, no sound in the sip phone for me. Linphone behaves in a somewhat better way - it does not hang, like ekiga.

So, it all means that the bug is irrelevant/fixed now. It might have been a voipcheap caprice, not linphone's.
