Note that with this arrangement you will not be able to support DOV/56K
ISDN calls. If you go with seperate numbers for ISDN vs. Analog that will
fix this problem. It sounds like it might depend on what other things you
are doing, since I think some other people have gotten it to work.

We were unable to get stacking to work. We had frequent problems with
callers who disconnected and reconnected immediately.
