When operating in "type=user" mode, which is what Server B is doing when
it answers a call, the "username=" line is ignored. The user name is the
name of the section, i.e. cardiff.

Also, the "context=" line doesn't steer the call, it just specifies what
context is available to imcoming calls. You can have multiple "context="
lines to make more than one context available. You need to specify the
required context at the peer end.

Try:
exten => s,1,Dial(IAX2/cardiff:test at 192.168.1.250/cardiff at sipfonescard)

Cheers
