Maybe this works too, it's worth a try.
Application.SelectObj("Autodesk.ShotCallers")
Application.DeleteObj()

It may be the hard way, but finding out about this neat trick was worth it.
I had no idea you could do that.

Re: Scrub timeline while mouse is in viewport?
You guys are doing it the hard way. There's already a tool for this! Been
there forever:
*Application.TimeSliderTool()*
(You can map a key to it in the Keyboard Mapping window, in the XSI
section, it's called "*Time Slider Tool*".)

Thanks to Brent, Softimage already has that Maya tool built-in; you'll
have to map it in your keymap, it's called "Time Slider Tool"
In the Maya keymap, it's already mapped to the K key

Hi Siew,
It's a bit of a hack but works ;)
Application.SelectObj("Application")
Application.SetMarking("PlayControl.Current")
Application.VirtualSliderTool()
Cheers!
