Maybe this is a Nokia specific feature, since both my Nokia phones do make these sound without being in a call. I think I recall in the past that on older Nokia phones (ca. 2002?) there was a setting to turn the DTMF tones on and off, but haven't seen that feature lately. Seem like they are default on?

Did anybody find the solution for this on Diablo? I have Skype v.1.7.113.22.2, but did not find how to turn on DTMF tones.

EDIT: I think the text below is off-topic, but perhaps useful ne'ertheless.

I think it was covered elsewhere; DTMF signaling is in-band, but some low-bandwidth codecs can't handle it, so out-of-band signaling is used, with the remote end injecting the actual in-band tones. There's an interaction of two issues here: limited control over what codec is used (when both local and remote support multiple codecs, the default one is often the wrong type), and only supporting one signaling mode. IIRC, it defaults to low-BW codecs, and only supports inband DTMF.

Something like that anyway. It's not that anything is technically wrong, just that enough flexibility is missing to cause minor incompatibilities with rather serious functionality loss sometimes. Oh well, at least the users won't get confused from too many switches...

EDIT: Wait a minute -- maybe the discussion I was thinking of related to the SIP client, not Skype. That would make more sense...

I just need to be able to enter a passcode when calling into a conference call.

I'm also stuck on this issue. I am unable to generate any DTMF tones when using Skype on my N810.

It is indeed quite a shortcoming since so many places these days require you to navigate their system using DTMF.

Anyone have a solution for this?

For instance, possibly to develop/port something like this: http://www.dsptutor.freeuk.com/dtmf/ToneGenerator.html
or
http://sourceforge.net/projects/caesar/

dtmf tones for skype are now working after I installed gizmo project and upgraded it to gizmo5. looks like skype install was missing some module which is now available after gizmo5 install. Have fun !!
