ASP.NET Forms Auth Allowing access to specific file in subdirectory when all others should be denied

I am having problems allowing a specific Role access to a specific page in a subdirectory.

My ASP.NET application has a directory, ~/Forms/Administration that has limited access. There is a specific file, ~/Forms/Administration/Default.aspx that I want to give 1 additional user role access to, as well as the Admin role.

In ~/Forms/Administration, I have a web.config file that looks like this:

   <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.web>
        <authorization>
            <allow roles="Administrator, User" />
            <deny users="*"/>
        </authorization>
    </system.web>

    <location path="Forms/Administration/Default.aspx">
        <system.web>
            <authorization>
                <allow roles="Administrator, User, AdditionalUser" />
            </authorization>
        </system.web>
    </location>

</configuration>

The Admin user works just fine, but AdditionalUser always fails. I've tried a number of things - listing the location as

<location path="Forms/Administration/Default.aspx">

And as

<location path="~/Forms/Administration/Default.aspx">

Is the deny="*" from the first generic rule taking precedent? I tried changing

<deny users="*"/>

To

<deny users="?"/>

But that ends up giving AdditionalUser access to everything. Suggestions?

EDIT: I tried putting the location specific allow before the generic deny rule, in case order mattered. Same problem.

UPDATE: I am clearly missing something here: I removed the deny * config, and left only the location specific section. Then, instead of allowing on certain roles, I set that one to deny all (*). However, it is not de
