Have you tried initiating a monitor command from within the AGI after the DIAL action?
When you place a call from AGI to connect a SIP phone to a local extension like that, it DOES treat it as a separate call until the Zap channel is connected. You are basically recording the dialing and when Asterisk detects a pickup on the Zap channel it 'officially' bridges the Sip and the Zap together and stops the recording that was going on on that channel before. I've run into this several times on the astGUIclient project.

I have setup as per the monitor example configuration on the wiki site and all works well for an extension dialing 8 then the number. However, if I dial from an AGI script the recording stops after a few seconds. I see an extra answer in the console and suspect that is the reason. Could any kind soul help me to get around this?
