As you see from audio/headset.c the event will also emit a
"AnswerRequested" D-Bus signal. So all you need to do is get the source
code for skype and fix it to listen for and react to this signal. Oh wait,
skype is closed source ;)
However, if the rumors are true we might see an open source skype UI for
Linux soon and then the issue could really be solved. This is btw assuming
that skype doesn't already have some API for external call control. If it
does, you might be able to hack together a telephony-skype.c which calls
into this API.
