You shouldn't place it there. There's a Goto(in-${DIALSTATUS},1) .
You should have:

exten => in5145551212-CHANUNAVAIL,1,Voicemail(2102,u)
; You already answered the call, you can't tell the phone system that
; the number is unavailable. Thus Hangup() rather than Hangup(3)
exten => in5145551212-CHANUNAVAIL,n,Hangup()

Do you have any verbose log for this?

"first time": after a reload? After a restart?
