Auto-fallthrough means that Asterisk couldn't find any more priority
numbers for the current extension, so it had to guess what the correct
course of action was (whether to hang up, play congestion, etc.).

If you want it to hangup instead of playing congestion, simply add
another priority to your extension (right after the call to the Dial()
application) which calls the Hangup() application explicitly.
