Summary:                    MeetMe conferences don't forward DTMF from SIP
clients
Description: 
I'm using a MeetMe conference to connect an outbound call (over either SIP
or a Zap channel) with a SIP internal agent.  I've turned on DTMF
forwarding for both users, but when I hit DTMF on any SIP client, it isn't
forwarded to the other end (the background noise is interrupted for dead
air for the duration of the keypress).

The reason I marked this as "major" is that my internal agents cannot
navigate voice menus on the outbound call, which is a big problem for us,
since many of the businesses we call have voice menus.

Corydon76: Does rfc2833compensate=yes ever do anything bad?  The one
advantage of my current hack is that it doesn't screw anything up even if
the SIP client sends both begin and end events, and it adds the begin
events if they don't exist.

I couldn't find a definitive answer from some Googling and reading of
asterisk-1.4.17/configs/sip.conf

If it is only this setting that fixes the problem, my apologies for
reporting a bug when there is none.
