http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Extension_Status_Example
is similar to what you want, except that instead of invoking a Javascript
application if the call fails (as in the example), you'll need to test the
value of originate_disposition to decide how to handle the call if the bridge
is unsuccessful and it falls through to the next action in the dial-plan.

(I'm assuming based on that page that originate_disposition is the correct
variable in this kind of scenario.)

Someone (perhaps you after you've implemented and debugged it) should document
the result on the wiki, as I'm sure this is a common use case, but there is no
documentation currently other than the above-mentioned page.
