It's really hard to say with this information. One thing I'd be
interested in knowing is whether this happens with the echo-cancel
module is not loaded. Either way, having verbose daemon logs would be
the first step to trying to figure out where things go wrong.

p.s.: You probably don't really want to use the speex canceler if the
webrtc one works at all.
