You are calling the Dial() application here.  If you are using queues, 
you should use the Queue() application.
Dial() does not interact with the queue or the device state for the 
queue members, it just attempts to make the call.
If the queue members are not available, the Queue() app will immediately 
return to the next dialplan step.
If the members are available, the call will be placed into the queue.  
If then caller waits for TIMEOUT time, then dialplan will continue at 
the next step.
Either way, the ${QUEUESTATUS} variable will contain the reason it 
continued.
