When I was testing asterisk 1.6.0.X with the AMI Originate action, I 
fell into the same issue as you. I found that it was that the 
permissions now are more fine-grained, and to have the ability to 
originate a call you need to set additional write permissions compared 
to the 1.4.X AMI.

A quick look of asterisk 1.6.0.X manager.conf.sample can give you the 
answer:

; Authorization for various classes
;
; Read authorization permits you to receive asynchronous events, in general.
; Write authorization permits you to send commands and get back 
responses.  The
; following classes exist:
;
; system    - General information about the system and ability to run system
;             management commands, such as Shutdown, Restart, and Reload.
; call      - Information about channels and ability to set information in a
;             running channel.
; log       - Logging information.  Read-only.
; verbose   - Verbose information.  Read-only.
; agent     - Information about queues and agents and ability to add queue
;             members to a queue.
; user      - Permission to send and receive UserEvent.
; config    - Ability to read and write configuration files.
; command   - Permission to run CLI commands.  Write-only.
; dtmf      - Receive DTMF events.  Read-only.
; reporting - Ability to get information about the system.
; cdr       - Output of cdr_manager, if loaded.  Read-only.
; dialplan  - Receive NewExten and VarSet events.  Read-only.
*; originate - Permission to originate new calls.  Write-only.*
;
;read = 
system,call,log,verbose,agent,user,config,dtmf,reporting,cdr,dialplan
;write = system,call,agent,user,config,command,reporting,*originate*

When I put the originate permission on the write settings of my AMI 
user, everything went fine.

To find more documentarion about the changes from AMI 1.0 to 1.1 take a 
look of these files on your asterisk source code:

UPGRADE-1.6.txt
doc/manager_1_1.txt

Hope it solves your issue.
