Polycom IP 6000 will not let me push the * key

[Jeff@TPC]

Hello all

I am trying to install two polycoms on a ESI switch with SIP trunks.

I have the phones programmed and they are registered and can call out and recieve call.

My problem is that while calling a confrence bridge once i enter the number and the confrence key it will not let me hit the star key for more options.

here is my example

bridge number 1-800-629-0404

confrence number 6242250

press star for more options 

It will not recognize and key punch after that.

Thanks for any help you can give me.
