Maybe you can do a quick trick with the L option of dial :

# *L(*x[:y][:z]*)*: Limit the call to 'x' ms, warning when 'y' ms are 
left, repeated every 'z' ms) Only 'x' is required, 'y' and 'z' are 
optional. The following special variables are optional for limit calls: 
(pasted from app_dial.c)

    * *LIMIT_PLAYAUDIO_CALLER* - yes|no (default yes) - Play sounds to
      the caller.
    * *LIMIT_PLAYAUDIO_CALLEE* - yes|no - Play sounds to the callee.
    * *LIMIT_TIMEOUT_FILE* - File to play when time is up.
    * *LIMIT_CONNECT_FILE* - File to play when call begins.
    * *LIMIT_WARNING_FILE* - File to play as warning if 'y' is defined.
      If *LIMIT_WARNING_FILE* is not defined, then special sound macro
      to auto-say the time left is used ("You have [XX minutes] YY
      seconds").


setting x to a very large value, y to something small, z to null, 
playing sounds also to the callee, and setting a personalized 
*LIMIT_CONNECT_FILE
with a little agi script called before the Dial command ...
