Sounds like time for some more in depth troubleshooting.  What happens
when you follow Mark's suggestion of adding a NoOp statement?  What
happens when you create other pattern-match extensions?  Do they work?
 What messages are you getting on the console?  Is the call being
rejected by the SIP device?  What messages do you get when SIP
debugging is turned on?  etc, blah, blah, blah...
