The problem you have is that to get an AGI script going, you have one
leg of a call, and you are about to DIAL a second leg. Asterisk connects
the 2 and leaves the AGI with nothing to work on. 

If you want to have a call start and be dumped into AGI, then you need
to use the sample.call file to make the call and hook it up to the AGI
script.
