I have my GV set to ask me every time how I want to make the call.

Also, keep an eye on the access number as it changes from time to time (no one really knows how long each access number is "good" for).
I am using the "Google Voice Callback" app, it adds a step to making a call but you do not use an access code therefore, only one number to add to F&F (and nothing to keep track off/change).
You can set filters up so it will always use GV for certain calls and always use your carrier number for certain calls, no deciding on a per call basis. It really works well, I've had no issues at all with it.
The one slight annoyance with it is that it calls you so you have to answer your phone to make a call. That, however, is worth it for the overall ease of using GV to it's max potential.
