I never saw a PRI behave that way with a "progress with cause X", but I 
think that's to be able to reproduce the message. On all the PRI's I had 
the change to manage, if a number was unallocated the telco side would 
*request a hangup *with cause code X. That would leave you with a 
inmediate response that can be easily retrieved on ${HANGUPCAUSE} as you 
have in your dialplan. You can ask your telco to change the behavior to 
hangup with the corresponding cause code as you don't need to hear the 
message (if you still need your users to hear something, you can 
playback an appropiate internal message or tones depending on the hangup 
cause received).

On the other hand, have you tried changing the switchtype from national 
to euroisdn? It may help if your telco uses that type of switches, 
because the call setup info varies a little on each configuration.

Cheers,
