Try this.. i'm kinda shocked you didn't see us talking about this over  
and over in the pasty 24 hours.  You'll need to make sure you're on  
the latest code for this:

<action application="bridge"  
data="[effecitive_caller_id_number=1234]sofia/blah/blah, 
[effective_caller_id_number=55555]sofia/blah/blah"/>
