Phone dialplan rules seem to be the culprit for something like that. Take a look at what the phone has set as the rules, and set as appropriate. Instructions are available, a link was posted earlier on the list...

I second the dialplan as the culprit...I know you said that nothing is wrong in the dialplan....I could have sworn mine was good too, I was experiencing the exact same symptoms as you. Went over the dialplan with a fine tooth comb, corrected some logic mistakes that I had been overlooking every time I checked it, and finally the problem is gone.
This cannot be the dialplan, since the dialplan does not see which digits you dial until after the entire number gets sent to asterisk (in other words, the digits don't get sent to asterisk as you press them). The digits get sent when you press the send button, or when the phone's digit map says the dial string is complete. I'm pretty certain this would be a result of your digit map matching some dial pattern. I think the default digit map will match '00', '11', and '10' and send them immediately to asterisk. You can manipulate the digit map on the web interface, or in the XML files (sip.cfg).
As a stopgap measure, you can tell your users to just dial when the phone is on the hook and press the dial softbutton. This will bypass the digitmap check.
