This is a phone in Sydney sending a call out of a PRI in Sydney.  Would 
G.729 even be an issue in this situation?

I think that we need the dtmf-relay to stay as-is for access to Unity, 
correct?  The over-the-WAN codec is set for G.729.

We can't do MGCP because of call preservation, plus the CMs are in the U.S.

The voice-port is:
voice-port 0/1/0:15
  translation-profile incoming PREFIXDID
  input gain -3
  output attenuation -6
  echo-cancel coverage 24
  echo-cancel erl worst-case 0
  playout-delay minimum low
  no comfort-noise
