Pick Up Phone To Dial Out

I switched from GV to Phone Power a few days ago. Seems to work fairly well, had a glitch or two.

I kept my GV phone number, having it forwarded to my new PP number, added in the GV Settings.

I have Obi-100.

Now, here is something I noticed, and can't seem to figure out how to correct it.

When I pick up my home phone to dial out, instead of hearing a steady, " landline " tone, I hear an intermittent tone, for a few seconds, before I get the steady dial tone, that lets me know I'm ready to dial.

I thought I remember experiencing this, back when I first bought my Obi-100 and configured GV to it, and, the fix for it was to check incoming voicemails in my GV.  Once I would play them, in GV, then, when picking up phone to dial out, I would not get the intermittent tone, it would be a steady dial tone, again. ( after playing the voicemail in GV )

I have no voicemails, texts, and have even cleaned out the history, in GV.  

I have no voicemails in my Phone Power account.

Is this a GV, PP, or OBi-100 issue?
