Because Asterisk does not support that.  The only thing that Asterisk 
does is use the first SRV entry but it pays no attention to priorities 
or weights.  It does not care about other SRV entries either.  This is 
how things have been as long as I can remember.  I am not sure about 
version 1.6 though.
