Got it.  The issue was in the "Channel" directive in my AMI script.  Before,
it looked like this:

Action: Originate
Channel: SIP/ShoreTel
Exten: 7979
Variable: Data=testing1
Context: accept
Priority: 1

When it works, it looks like this:

Action: Originate
Channel: SIP/ShoreTel/7979
Variable: Data=testing1
Context: accept
Priority: 1


Thanks for your help!
