in thread XML::Simple is doing too much for me! Help please.

Try setting the ForceArray options like this: 
$xml = XMLin("teste.xml",
        KeepRoot => 1,
        ForceArray => [ 'phonenumber', 'prompt' ],);

    That did it, thanks izut. Just to keep the record complete, here is the results: 
    $VAR1 = {
  'campaign' => {
    'menuid' => '10118-2',
    'action' => '0',
    'phonenumbers' => {
      'phonenumber' => [
        {
          'number' => '4167781583',
          'prompts' => {
            'prompt' => [
              {
                'tts' => 'Hello, this is a test.',
                'promptid' => '2'
              }
            ]
          },
          'callid' => '1234abc'
        }
      ]
    }
  }
};

    <phonenumber callid="1234abc" number="4167781583">
