IWelcome to the world of application aware Firewalls.
I'm betting you are running into an Inspection error.
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/vpndevc/ps2030/products_tech_note09186a008085283d.shtml
I would do the following:
policy-map global_policy
class inspection_default
no inspect h323 h225
no inspect h323 ras
I have cisco IP phones, and I ALWAYS have to remove the skinny from my
ASA's, because they often do not support the correct version of the skinny
protocol. (At the time I hit the issue, The phones were on Version 19 of
SCCP, but the ASA only understood Version 15)
This may not be your issue, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is.
Mike
