I had the same problem in a welding lab. I did this on a 3Com NBX, but I'm sure that the same idea would apply to Asterisk: I went to RadioShack, and bought one of their "visual ringers", for the hearing impaired (basically flashes a white strobe light, and sounds a really loud ringer), and attached it to an ATA adapter. Then I created a flat call group, and reassigned its number to what the single phone's extension used to be. That way, whenever anyone would dial that extension, the strobe would activate and the louder ringer would sound, in addition to the telephone.

Install inside the phone and sense the ringer audio. Suspect similar kits sold by others. - cheap ata with inexpensive rj11 radio shack ringer adapter, and sip/11&sip/22 - cheap ata with telco-style industrial horn - modify sip phone electronics to add a relay closure (and lights) based on ringer signal
