Have you tried listening to the analog side of the Primus line with a regular telephone? I assume you're using a Primus provided ATA since you mention the TDM400. Sometimes systems use what I've heard termed "DTMF Clamping". They listen for a tone and then interrupt the audio stream and replace it with their own, usually of a fixed duration. Perhaps you're getting the first fraction of a tone, then the clamping kicks in and plays a full tone.
An easy way to check for this DTMF clamping is to hold down the key. If you hold the key for 10 seconds and what comes out at the other end is a 1 second tone, then something in the middle is replacing your tone. Also consider that if the audio is choppy, the tone may come through partially, then drop out due to packet loss or jitter or whatever then come back and be heard some more. This may cause the tone to be detected as though a key were pressed twice. I've had this on my cel phone when the connection quality is poor. As for relaxDTMF, I'd think that you want it tightened, not relaxed. You're not failing to detect DTMF, you're detecting it too quickly or sensitively. These are just a few thoughts. I can't say I've experienced your problem first hand.
