[Asterisk-Users] Pattern Matching

We recently had our PRI installed, we currently have 100 toll-free's 
pointing to it.

I have almost everything working great but..

I have setup the first few numbers we want to use coming in from the PRI and 
they work great, but..

What I want to do is setup an extension with pattern matching to answer for 
any numbers called that are pointed to our system and PRI but not yet in 
use/configured.

I have been successful at setting up pattern matching as a catch all for 98 
or so numbers not in use yet and I have been successful setting up the 2 
numbers I want to make use of for now.

Problem is, I can't use both at the same time!

If I turn on the pattern matching then my greeting plays for the configured 
number, then the message plays for the invalid number (basically executing 
the extension with the pattern matching).

I have read about sorting with pattern matching by using an include, I did 
this but it's not really helping.

I have set a response timeout after the first extension plays it's greeting, 
I would think it should wait until it times out but it doesn't, it just 
immediately moves to the pattern matched extension.

I must be missing something big here..

Any help is appreciated..
