Did you lock the modem->computer port speed on the modem at 57k as well?

The getty won't prompt (or set the speed) until the DCD is raised
by the modem (assuming you have the modem set up correctly to "DCD
follows remote carrier" instead "DCD forced high" or something else.

You can lock the port baud rate (but you don't need to; getty will
change it for you when DCD is raised) using the /etc/rc.serial file.
