Funny biting reflex some people have here.... just because YOU have no use for something doesn't mean someone else doesn't need it either! So can you please shut up instead of insulting people? Especially if you've got nothing else to say. Thank you!

I miss the same functionality. I just wanted to show a dj set i like to a friend on the phone, but found no way to do that.
About a month ago i wrote a python script that should make espeak speak out who is calling. But espeak cant speak while the phone is ringing. I tried to disable ringtones, but it didn't change anythin. So I guess it's the same mechanism that is preventing the media player from playing while on the phone. But i don't know and didn't find time to investivate it further.

Anyone got a clue? I'd be happy with a pointer to more info about that.


Cheers!
