Shoretel Phone --> ShoreTel --> PRI --> Asterisk --> Softswitch --> VoIP/PSTN -- This situation does NOT work. User hears audio, but Asterisk does not appear to process DTMF. Note, this is ONLY on IVR applications where we are not getting 200/connect passed through even though we're hearing IVR audio (early media)
Second situation:
IP Phone --> Asterisk --> Softswitch --> VoIP/PSTN -- Works as expected. You can dial the IVR and still send DTMF.
It seems like there are some early media problems when routing traffic through the PRI.
Is it Phone -> ShoreTel -> Asterisk -> PSTN ???

Subject: Re: [Asterisk-Users] PRI dialing IVR with inband DTMF
Well the communication between the Asterisk and Shoretel is ISDN PRI. If a station on the Shoretel calls a regular number (company auto-attendant, cellphone voicemail, etc) and that number "ANSWERS" then there do not appear to be any problems with DTMF.
When a station dials an IVR which does not "ANSWER" but does Early Media, that stations DTMF is not being received by the PRI. My understanding is that this should typically be handled over the D channel, but in a number of test calls I discovered that all DTMF is being sent Inband from Shoretel over the PRI.

Hey Anthony,
I don't know if this will help you but, we had
a hard time getting touchtones (DTMF) to work until
we set both ends to "INFO" (sometimes called "SIP Info")
RFC2833, Inband, Auto, etc. did not work.
