[VoIP] More pulse dialing mysteries

Delving into the code, I noticed that zaptel.h naively uses a 50:50
pulse make/break ratio (ZT_DEFAULT_PULSEBREAKTIME and
ZT_DEFAULT_PULSEBREAKTIME are both set to 50 ms).
I tried using the US-standard 61:39 and UK-standard 67:33 ratios, and I
found that pulsing was still accurate with the TDM400P card - but the
Adtran FXO card got even worse.
Another thing I tried, which made no difference either way, was to
configure the channel bank to generate the timing and tell the TE110P to
use the channel bank as the timing source.
I'm not really a T1 guru, but I'm wondering if the way that T1 sends
supervisory signals messes with the timing of the pulses? I kind of
doubt it, though, since FXS pulse dialing works just fine on the channel
bank.
