This seems like a Catch 22.
Did you use the CC DID number to setup your GV number? GV needs a confirmation that the number is yours. That is your Catch 22 situation. You should have used your cell.
If I understand you correctly you will need to temporarily set up the OBi to receive calls directly from CC. Do not try the GV->CC scheme until the CC DID is confirmed by GV to belong to you. You may need to activate the outgoing calls with CC, at least to make that first call. That means that you will need to drop some money in the account. I'm not sure but I think that you may be able to revert to the free incoming after.
The alternative is to start over, now that you know how to avoid the Catch 22.

I haven't seen this discussed yet. When setting up GV > CC (with CNAM), is there any delay added, delay-to-ring is specifically what I'm asking about here?

I set up my Google Voice number a couple of months ago. Along with my Obi100 it has been my landline. My cellphone is listed as the mandatory other number with Google Chat.
Did CC even request a phone number when applying? I don't recall putting one in, but I guess I must have. I tried putting my cellphone number into CC's "Call Treatment" section Redirect call to this Number, but it didn't ring when I called the CC number over my OBi'ed GV line. Oh well. I guess it's time to cancel it and start over again. Tomorrow is another day.

Hi Stu-be,
Please first complete the instructions located under the heading "Inside your OBi 100/110/202:" and then try to add your CC number to Google Voice again. Now, when GV tries to verify your CC number by calling you, you should be able to answer the call and hear the audio PIN.
Hope it helps,
