Symptom
When CUBE receives a SIP call and matches an outgoing dial-peer with a "session server-group" and "sip options-keepalive" configured, the call fails at the CCAPI layer with a "Cause Value" of 188. No outgoing INVITE is sent out to any of the servers that are part of the server group. The incoming INVITE is responded with TRYING and 503 Service Unavailable.
Conditions
1. The outgoing dial-peer has "session server-group" and "sip options-keepalive" configured
example:
!
voice class server-group 1
ipv4 x.x.x.x preference 1
!
!
dial-peer voice 201 voip

2. The "show dial-peer voice summary" indicates that the outgoing dial-peer is UP/UP and Active (if keepalive is configured)

3. IOS/XE version 17.6.1a
Workaround
There are three options.
1. Configure the outgoing dial-peer with "session target ip4:", instead of "session server-group". If needed, create a separate dial-peer for each IP of the server group.
!
dial-peer voice 201 voip
:
session target ipv4:x.x.x.x
:
!
!
dial-peer voice 202 voip
:
session target ipv4:x.x.x.x

or
2. Remove the "sip options-keepalive" on the dial-peer.
or
3. Downgrade to an earlier version
