Well, this did not happen in 1.6.2, so I figured it was a regression.
Here are the lines from the log once the call was answered and after the
dtmf for the *1

[Jul 29 20:31:03] VERBOSE[22300] file.c:     -- <SIP/202-0000005b>
Playing 'beep.gsm' (language 'en')
[Jul 29 20:31:04] VERBOSE[22300] file.c:     -- <SIP/flowroute-0000005c>
Playing 'beep.gsm' (language 'en')
Why the second line?
