I've seen ghost ringing with broadsoft's call transfer recall feature. The scenario was that an operator transferred calls to a hunt group and when they didn't answer in time the call was recalled to the operator. The phones continued to ring even after the call was recalled. This was with broadsoft R14 and a patch to the application server resolved the issue. <br>

Subject: [VoiceOps] Broadworks hunt group CNAME manipulation<br>
<br>
Hello,<br>
<br>
We have a few hunt groups built out in BroadWorks and have noticed that<br>
the hunt group name is prepended to the caller name when an inbound call<br>
to the hunt group is sent to one of its members. This could be a very<br>
useful feature, but our current hunt group customers don't want this and<br>
the only setting I've found for it in Broadworks disables it globally.<br>
<br>
I've looked for options to rewrite the caller name part of the display<br>
field, either on our SBC or the TA900 CPE, but neither seems to support<br>
stripping off the first part of the display name and leaving the rest.<br>
<br>
Has anyone else already dealt with this? If so, what solution did you<br>
end up with?<br>
