Why don't you use a newer version of chan_capi ?

chan_capi aborts the deflect command if the controller reports (during
capi controller profile read) that deflect is not supported. In your case
the controller doesn't report this feature. You can check this using
shell command 'capiinfo'. In the last section "Supplementary services 
support" you should see "Call Deflection".
If it was working before, something in your environment must have changed.
Maybe the Fritz driver?
