Well, with "Sounds for events" in the GNOME sound preferences toggled off,
there is (obviously) no sound played when I hit the "Call or answer"
button, but the issue is there. When sounds are on, there is an effect
played (a short one, ending before the connection status is shown as
connected) and the issue is also there. I wouldn't rule it out altogether
because I'm not that familiar with esd, alsa and such but it does not seem
likely to me.
