Summary:                    rtpkeepalive blocks incoming DTMF periodically
Description: 
When rtpkeepalive is not zero then comfort noise packets are sent
periodically. During sending of comfort noise packets incoming DTMF is not
processed.

These DMTF tones are lost.

The Function ast_rtp_sendcng in rtp.c mutes DTMF for a certain period
here:
rtp->dtmfmute = ast_tvadd(ast_tvnow(), ast_tv(0, 500000)); 

DMTF tones received during this period are not processed by Asterisk. 

I verified the problem in Asterisk 1.4.40. The code 1.6.2.17.1 seems to be
the same.
