Nothing. Why?

Maybe in a bit stressed out kind of way.

Without having all necessary information that is hard to say. Maybe one phone comes in a different context than the other etc. Lot's of things that could go wrong in the dialplan.

If we are talking about the same context and same way of dialing: True.

I somehow had the impression that you are using the transfer button on the SNOM which would tell the SNOM to transfer the call. You are obviously talking about attended/unattended transfer via Asterisk only, correct? Then ignore my suggestion.

Well... If you are using inband DTMF: correct. Otherwise DTMF may correspond to SIP messages as well but let's not get into that. I suppose you are using inband DTMF and G.711?

If the dialplan is not responsible obviously the phones are behaving differently. Maybe the DTMF sequence is not transmitted correctly but on the other hand I am using SNOMs with inband DTMF without any problems. Maybe the phone (as others suggested) is doing some number/pattern matching magic which you have to fiddle with.

The default setup should not be a problem with SNOMs (at least I never read anything about it) but have a look at the features.conf options.

But a lot of exclamationsmarks. :-) Just kidding.

As others pointed out: We (at least I) would need the entire picture (the relevant parts of your dialplan etc.) to really help you here.
