Meetme does not pass through DTMF from VOIP channels. I would recommend having your agents use the Send DTMF form on the vicidial.php screen to send the #.

Please check with your provider as to what format you want the dtmf in. If you are using compression, i suggest you use an out of band setting like rfc2833.

We have over two dozen asterisk installations and have had DTMF issues whenever we had VoIP with G729 - more so when meetme is involved.

there are a few providers with whom DTMF has worked fairly well - inphonex.com, for instance. it does look like they use asterisk as well but the call hits a SIP Proxy first. don't know if that has anything to do with the dtmf accuracy.
