Alert_Info Header on Follow Me Calls

I have a situation where calls are failing to the SIP provider due to extra alert_info headers when using Follow Me. When an external party calls an extension’s DID where follow me is active, the call to the user’s mobile works fine. When an internal extension calls another extension with follow me active, FreePBX is placing extra ALERT_INFO headers in the INVITE and the carrier is rejecting the call (400 Bad Request) to the user’s mobile.

Below are captures of the PBX Invites to the carrier to dial the mobile follow me number. The first is acall originated from an external party, the second is what happens when its extension-to-extension.

INVITE that is sucessful (carrier completes the call)
