I am having no luck here. It seems the fax detection is overriding 
everything. I added the above and it never gets called. I guess it might 
be time to look at the Asterisk code and see if I can create another 
variable before the redirect happens.

     -- Starting simple switch on 'Zap/1-1'
     -- Redirecting Zap/1-1 to fax extension
     -- Executing Dial("Zap/1-1", "IAX2/999/|20") in new stack
