Is the dtmfmode= line in your sip.conf the same as the dtmfmode in your
X-Lite Client? If not, * will not be able to understand DTMF coming from the
client once an extension has been dialed and pushed onto the SIP stack...

I believe X-Lite defaults to using RFC2833 DTMF, so make sure in your X-Lite
context in sip.conf that you have set dtmfmode = rfc2833...

Be sure to check out the samples provided in the Asterisk/configs directory
as well as...
