Auto Attendant setup?

QBZappy,
Yes, I saw jimates' workaround, but as you said, it seems to "trick" the GV system. I am very leery as to its long-term reliability. It has the appearance of a "loophole" or "mistake" in the GV system. Knowing Google, I would not be surprised if they discover this loophole and close it eventually. Then again, it may well work for years to come!
I guess I just prefer the method(s) you referenced above. By reducing the AnswerDelay in the AA Service, calls to a GV number would be very quickly answered by the AA. After the AA plays a very short recording of a telephone ringing (3 times), the call is then sent to the phone port, etc.
Your PBX virtual extension post is also good. As it seems to require additional touch-tone input by the caller, I think it will serve well in business/commercial environments. It's nice to have all these options though.

pc44,
Since no one has figured out a way to do this programmatically, I think it might be possible to trick the OBi into submission by giving it what it wants by essentially giving it the press "1" to continue this call without user intervention. I'm suggesting that the initial AA announcement could be a recording of the "1" touch tone to simulate the pressing of that key. The DTMFMethod may need to be set to Inband.

I have not tested this.

Ok so this definitely seems to do the trick and it works excellent, thanks to everyone who helped.
Only issue I have now, is that I have to gv accounts, one goes to sp1 one goes to sp2.
now by both the numbers it reaches the Attendant and then when it passes to the phones it rings by both lines on the obi,
any way to make to setup that gv 1 should always go to line 1 even with AA, and gv2 should go to line 2?

pikach,
There were a few suggestions, just curious. What did you end up doing?

Your option number 2 from above

2) Record a short ring-back sound. It will give the impression the phone is ringing while the AA cycles three times.
