If the type=friend then it matches on IP Address and Port Number, not
the user name. It will then use the first entry in the sip.conf - it
does not take any notice of the name. If you change the order that the
two entries appear, all the calls will appear to come from [pstn-9998]
even if they come from [pstn-4444].

I  used  to  set user=peer, which solved the problem for me, but I now
direct  all  the calls to a single context in extensions.conf and then
send them to their own contexts based on the DNID.
