The fix was to change the initialization string of the modem. I changed things too many times to be sure of the exact problem, but I'm now initializing with ATZ after writing to NVRAM (AT&F1&K0&W0 sent from minicom). diald didn't like the string AT&F1 in the chat command line. I don't know how similar your modem is.
