Hi,

I too am experiencing the same problem you have.

I am using inband DTMF processing with ULaw (G711) and like you I notice that Asterisk seams to be passively listening to the line waiting to hear a DTMF. When it hears a DTMF it mutes the handset and regenerates my original DTMF (in a very short burst) which often gets missed by the remote party. This is especially true for IVR systems.

        I haven't come across a configuration option that keeps Asterisk
from muting the handset and regenerating the original DTMF. Perhaps if Asterisk saw that the active channel was using inband processing with G711 it could leave everything alone and just let the user's dtmf go through unfettered!

If this isn't possible for some technical reason I wonder if there is a configuration option that allows the user to set the duration of the regenerated dtmf?

Maybe a developer will see this and can comment.

Best regards,
  Monty

Hello,

Ther's probably a simple answer to this but I've searched
around and haven't located anything as yet.  Is there a way
to have DTMF tones passed through Asterisk without it
messing with them?  I am using a tdm21b card and when I
call an ivr system from the telephone handset (routed over
sip or iax2) such as telebanking, the ivr has trouble
recognizing tones.  When I tested this with a remote party,
I was told tones were breaking up.  For example, a long
press would result in a click, some silence and a small
dtmf on the remote end.  Triggering a speed dial didn't go
well either as he heard only a few tones.  I have
dtmfmode=inband in sip.conf and have tried relaxdtmf=yes in
zapata.conf.

I realize Asterisk does need to detect dtmf for things like
call parking but can it just pass the audio to the other
side with no regard for whether it's dtmf digits?  IE. long
press results in long tone, etc.

Best,
Shane
