We've been running a Sangoma A104 at a client site for the past 12 months 
without any DTMF issues whatsoever, neither from the inbound nor the outbound 
side. That unit's connected to a multitude of analog and IP phones, as well as a 
large legacy PABX behind the * box. Some numbers on the PRIs are provisioned to 
hit a lengthy IVR menu tree, so I know the DTMF works.

Bear in mind it's running much older versions of Asterisk, Zaptel and libpri.

Are you only having this problem for call parking? Any issues when the caller is 
navigating an IVR?
