The server(s) that will ultimately handle the call will negotiate the codec to be used and will hopefully agree on a suitable codec so that the call works properly. I am not sure if the order actually has significance, I think it is more the stated ability to use this or that codec that really matters.

Some providers may require specifically setting the codec rather than relying on the negotiation process.

Edit: beaten by Martin... so the order is significant after all, there you go -- still there may be a failure of negotiation to get use the best codec just the same...
