My copy of Kermit 2.2 does this as well.  (I got it from Q-link as well).
I found that if you hit return as soon as you go into connect mode, then
type atdt 555-5555 the 'a' will show up.  It isn't a big deal, as you said,
it works without hitting return first, it just looks funny without the echoed
'a'.
