First remember:
UAC sends INVITE
UAS sends OK
UAC sends ACK

SDP negotiation has two parts: offer and answer.

SIP allows either UAC to send offer and UAS to send answer or for UAS to send offer and UAC to send answer. Although its more common for UAC to send the offer, it's possible for the UAC to not send an offer in the INVITE. In that case, the UAS will send the offer in the OK and then the UAC will send the answer in the ACK.

So while UAC -> Offer in INVITE
UAS -> Answer in OK is common

UAC no offer in INVITE
UAS -> Offer in OK
UAC -> Answer in ACK is possible

Im not sure, so probably this could be an scenario where it might help

Invite with List of supported Media
200 Ok with list of supported media instead of 1
so may be ACK can help to find out the codec choose from the 200 OK
