Light been scattered by a scattering media will affect the radiosity, if "media 
on" is set.
Radiosity ray are only affected by the extinction and never illuminate any media.

You can fake it, somewhat, by using an emiting media together with the 
scattering media. Mostly work in relatively simple cases. Good with large 
ambient surfaces "lighting" simple shapes.
