It would be helpful to know a couple of things, as this has been my 
experience also, though others insist it works, though there is some 
disagreement as to how much delay a"w" inserts
.
1: what version of Asterisk are you using? One of the so called Stable 
versions? Or HEAD, and from what date?
2: Are you dialing DTMF or pulse?
3: Analog, through a X100P or TDM400 FXO module?

Ground start supposedly isn't supported in the X100P and TDM400 FXO modules.
