Laravel - multiple controllers with same name

Question

I already have a working application and there is a PhoneController.php in controllers folder.

Now I want to add an api for my application so I added api\v1\PhoneController.php

But when I use routing this doesnt work as I want to:

Route::group(array('prefix' => 'api/v1'), function()
{
    Route::get('test', 'PhoneController@index');
});

I tried adding 'namespace' => 'api\v1' or api\v1\PhoneController@index but this always picks the wrong PhoneController.

Are there anyways to get it work? I could rename the PhoneController.php but this could confuse me in future, so I am trying to avoid this solution

As described here http://daylerees.com/codebright/controllers

namespace Blog\Controller;

class Article extends \BaseController
{
    public function showIndex()
    {
        return \View::make('index');
    }
}

Then add route

Route::post('index', 'Blog\Controller\Article@showIndex');
