This is true in general for Asterisk dialplans, it has nothing to do 
with Realtime.

Extensions defined in the context itself are always searched before any 
included contexts or switches. If you want to control the search order, 
you must put _all_ your extensions into separate contexts (by type or 
whatever other grouping you wish) and then use a 'master' context with 
include/switch statements in the order you wish them to be processed.
