There is a problem with SIP-dissector in 0.10.3 that has been solved in cvs
version. The problem was introduced shortly before 0.10.3 released and fixed
some days later.
I know you can get a crash when you select a SIP packet if at least one of
the conditions below is true:
-The SIP packet is sent over TCP
-The SIP packet is not sent to/from UDP port 5060 (either source port or
destination port needs to be 5060 otherwise you may get the crash)
-The preference setting "Try heuristic dissectors first" for UDP is enabled
(Edit/Preferences/Protcols/SIP)

It should be possible to define the default interface in the preference
settings,
Edit/Preferences/Capture/Default interface + Save
Try that.
