I would do this:

exten => 1111,1,Dial(SIP/1111,5,tr)
exten => 1111,2,Voicemail,u1111
exten => 1111,102,Voicemail,b1111

Your priority numbering was off a little and its best to group the whole
extension together instead of spreading them out.  Helps to make sure you
don't get lost.  Also that 5 is in seconds.. not rings.

I would do this

[default]
exten => 1111,1,Macro(stdexten|1111)
exten => 6882332,1,Macro(stdexten|6882332)
exten => 5104112978,1,Macro(stdexten|5104112978)


[macro-stdexten]
exten => s,1,Dial(SIP/${ARG1},20,tr)
exten => s,2,Voicemail(u${ARG1})
exten => s,3,Hangup
exten => s,102,Voicemail(b${ARG1})
exten => s,103,Hangup


Hope that helps.
