You know, similar to "improper throw-in, coach's comment, 3-point shot taken, basket made, then a whistle."
A foul causes the ball to be dead, a timeout request does not. When was the request granted? According to the OP, the player heard the request, threw the ball to the official, then the timeout was granted. I took this to mean the official originally intended to ignore the request.
