[Asterisk-Users] Cisco SIP Phone 7960 & DTMF Problem

[Wayne]

Hiya,
IIRC Cisco's take the '#' as being a 'send what ive dialed' key when 
there is no active call.
for example you could dial 123456, wait for the phone to 'time out' then 
it sends/dials your number
or you could dial 123456# to send 123456 as soon as you press the # key.

So - I would guess that when you dial '*8#' - asterisk is only getting a 
'*8' and not knowing what to do with it.

Dunno if you can change a cisco to not use # to 'send' - too new to all 
this at the mo - this is just what I've observed with playing at home :)
