Is this region specific?  Do you get some of the DTMF but miss some?

You may want to try relaxdtmf=yes or play with your gains as others
will say that relaxdtmf is not really a solution (to me if it works
acceptably, it is a solution...)

OpenVox should work as well as the older Digium TDM400 boards as they
are the reference design (and made quite well actually).  Sangoma and
Digium should work better I would think.
