Mechanics Question on Catcher OBS

Dear collective wisdom:

What is the appropriate mechanic for the U2 in the following situation?:

R1, outs irrelevant. Catcher obstruction on the pitch, batter grounds to F6 who completes the force at 2B.

Should U2 signal the out and then let U1 award the OBS, or should U2 call "time" once the play is made and make the award?

I'm leaning toward the former, since U2 can't assume that U1 is going to call OBS. Your thoughts are appreciated.
