Running Ekiga 2.0.11-2 on Debian 64 testing, 2.6.23.1 kernel.  My
connection is pppd, using a mobile wireless modem (NOT dial up!).
I have a diamondcard account with $10.  I can enter the number I want
to call, and it waits a while and says connected.  I can play the
sounds under Edit-Preferences-General-Sound Events, but no sound comes
from ALSA while calling.
If I hit a button on the dialpad during the call, as you say, it
freezes after one press.

I also have a problem with the GUI hanging and going blank when I
attempt to disconnect the call.  The only way to close it is with
kill.

Any more info I can provide?
Thanks.
