Bug#498641: twinkle: Establishing audio connection before a call is placed

[Frédéric Brière]

Package: twinkle
Version: 1:1.2-2
Severity: wishlist

When placing a call, Twinkle currently waits until the other ends
answers before establishing an audio connection.  With a Bluetooth
headset, this is not instantaneous, and can sometimes take a few
seconds.  (At least, that's the case with mine.)  This means I'll often
miss what the other party said when answering, which can be awkward at
times.

It'd be nice if Twinkle could (optionally) establish the audio
connection *before* placing a call.
