asterisk users - Apr 2009 - Connection to non-human numbers

Greetings listers,

                          I've got 1.4.21.2 using Polycom 501 phones and Zap
lines.  Most of my calls come in and go out fine with the exception of
Mechanized answering devices.  When I call my 401K plan (1-800-777-401K)
the call will last exactly one minute.  The call never bridges, so even
though the connection is made, Asterisk hangs up at the end of the Dial
command.  Any suggestions?

are you using progress detection on your zap lines?

callprogress=yes
progzone=us

this may be the problem.  i have the same issue when i dial into my work 
voicemail out of my asterisk box at home.

try setting callprogress=no

by the way, for anyone else, might there be a way to enable/disable 
callprogress from the dialplan?
