One direction that may be worth exploring further is his ATA's config (or 
perhaps swapping it for a different model). Eg adjusting echo cancellation or 
line impedance settings.

Is the ATA he is using the same as the ATA you use? 

Failure to correctly recognise and decode DTMF is just one of many reasons why 
I never use them (ATAs). Like faxing over VoIP, they're just too much trouble 
:( 

Genuine IP phones are pretty good value these days. Could you drop one of those 
on-site as a temporary measure to prove that it's phone and/or ATA related?

Ps, you might also want to consider joining VoiceOps (if you're not already
