The official's whistle seldom causes the ball to become dead (it is already dead).

Once you talked to your partner, you had actual knowledge that a dead ball preceeded the foul. As Chuck pointed out, unless the contact is intentional or flagrant, it should be ignored.

"The ball hit the support first, we're goin' that way."
