I call the same # on both the land line and the cell phone..
they both use the same context...... the cell phone doesn't work.. the
land line does..

It's a Kuwait GSM cell phone (one of those cheap bottom of the line
Nokia's)..

Looking at the console while tailing messages i get this:

Feb 19 17:37:57 NOTICE[1226062640]: chan_zap.c:4610 ss_thread: Got event
2 (Ring/Answered)...
    -- Executing Answer("Zap/2-1", "") in new stack

    -- Set Response Timeout to 10

Feb 19 17:37:57 NOTICE[1226062640]: Got event 2 (Ring/Answered)...
    -- Hungup 'Zap/2-1'

I dial 9-1-219-4  and about that time i get Hungup 'Zap/2-1'

Is it possible that when i press a few keys, asterisk thinks i've hung
up because of some weird cell phone issue?
I tried dialing REALLY slow and had spaces between each digit and got
the same results...
