Paul,
        I have run into the same problem.  The easiest way to fix it
would be to not use Agents anymore, as when they are members of a queue
there is no way for app_queue to see if they are logged in or not
(leading to the problem we're having).
        However, this bug:
        http://bugs.digium.com/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=0001693
may provide the tools we need to work around this problem, namely, not
putting Agents statically into queues.conf, but adding them dynamically
using AddQueueMember when they log on.
