Description:I recently upgraded from version 1.0.7 to 1.2.10 and noticed that DTMF is no longer working like it should on incoming Zap channels (E1 PRI). I have a few apps that read entered DTMF, among them is a dial-in app that reads destination number and calls it. If I call this number only 4-5 digits are detected before the channel is hung up when using 1.2.10, and on 1.0.7 the whole digit sequence is detected. I have also tried other apps like Read to see if my app is the problem, but the output is the same no matter what app I use.

See below. If you look at dst it shows 0047xt, while I actually entered 004721651012.

app_mcc2.c:639 mcc2_acct_stop: User ID: 2, src: 99355151, dst: 4646xt, hangup: NO ANSWER, time: 0, rate: 0, price: 0.000000

On SIP channels DTMF works OK - the whole DTMF sequence is captured, but for Zap channels it doesn't work.

if you have a Digium card, I think the best route here is to contact Digium Technical Support. Be prepared to use stock Asterisk build though.

I have a Sangoma card in this machine. I don't think the problem has anything to do with the card, since it worked before and drivers etc are exactly the same. The only things I have updated are libri, zaptel and asterisk.

Well, you're also using a module that is not in Asterisk (app_mcc2), so we can't help you.

Ok. As I stated earlier I have tried with other apps as well, including removing app_mcc2.c from the modules dir and using a clean unpatched asterisk 1.2.10 version, and the problem still persists. It has nothing to do with the module.

Still, given that we have absolutely no other reports of problems related to DTMF detection on zap channels, I am going to have to say this is a problem with your hardware.  Please pursue the issue through your vendor.

Sorry for reopening this, but I want to say that
busydetect=no fixes this. Just wanted to give anyone else who might have this problem the cure to resolve it. If busydetect=yes Asterisk will mistake the DTMF for a BUSY signal and then hang up the call.

Thanks for the update.  busydetect is known not to work very well ...
