You're not fully understanding FreeSWITCH yet...  You also have to  
catch this scenario in the dialplan.

     <extension name="external_sip_uri" continue="true">
       <condition field="source" expression="mod_sofia"/>
       <condition field="${domain_exists(${sip_req_host})}"  
expression="true">
         <anti-action application="bridge" data="sofia/internal/$ 
{sip_to_uri}"/>
       </condition>
     </extension>

Something like that would work and its commented out in the defaults.   
Remember we aren't a proxy.  So your phone is sending the invite  
directed at FreeSWITCH looking for bob in the context and since it  
can't find it... 404 not found.  The above example checks if the  
sip_req_host is a local domain.. if not then lets send it out.

<param name="auth-all-packets" value="true"/>

B2BUA still.

To route you must use the sip+user at domain.com to route this stuff  
properly since we can bridge various technologies together.

If you search the mailing list Mike Jerris explained this in detail  
about a week or so ago.
