Auto Switch of sound to ear piece during Skype Calls only - Windows Mobile Apps and Games

There is a very good application which do the title job manually - Audio Route. But if I forget to switch sound back to the back speaker after Skype call, phone is ringing through the ear piece during normal calls and I miss calls.
So I am trying to find a solution for automatic switch only when Skype call established and return automatically to normal on closing of the Skype call.
Here is a small script for SKSchema which is doing the job (Tried on Touch HD WM6,5 Manila 2.1):
SCRIPT:
#eval(ID=0)
#rgget(HKLM;\System\State\Shell\Notifications\Active;ID;DWARD;ID)
#iftrue(reggot)
#label(not100)
#r(\Program Files\Teksoft\audioroute\AudioRoute.exe) #p(-backspeaker)
#goto(end)
#label(reggot)
#chkcondition(ID==100)
#iffalse(not100)
#r(\Program Files\Teksoft\audioroute\AudioRoute.exe) #p(-earpiece)
#label(end)
WATCH:
Watch for
Registry
Path
HKLM;\System\State\Shell\Notifications\Active;ID
Execute
:SKSCHM
with parameters
#r(#script) #p(path to script with script name) #onlyrun
Script works well only if no other notification appears during the Skype call is in progress. If some other notification appear the sound is returning to back speaker. So the start of call is tracing well. But I cannot find an event that can track the end of Skype call unconditionally.
Can somebody help in that matter?

Here is another way / script which is not affected by any other messages, it simply switches audio to ear piece when SKYPE window is in front and switches back to REAR speaker when SKYPE is minimised. It works well but requires you to start the SKYPE call and then use your volume button to switch the audio (it does this on my HTC TD2 because it effectively minimises SKYPE while the volume panel is open then when SKYPE comes back to the front it switched the audio to earpiece.
If you remove the "#" from the line "# Run(skype) " then you can just use tis script to launce SKYPE and then the rest is history as they say.
#Script to launch Skype and map the sound to the earpiece while Skype is active and running
#made by flitzjoy (at gmail dot com) - 04/22/09 - version 1
#Variables - path to Skype, path to AudioRoute and refresh interval
skype="\Program Files\Skype\Skype-PPC.exe"
audioroute="\program files\teksoft\audioroute\audioroute.exe"
interval=1000
# Code
# Run(skype)
sleep(2000)
mouseclick(264,480)
# sleep(500)
# mouseclick(225,475)
Run(audioroute,"-earpiece")
earpiece=1
Sleep(1000)
While(WndExists("Skype"))
If(WndActive("Skype"))
If(earpiece eq 0)
Run(audioroute,"-earpiece")
earpiece=1
EndIf
Else
If(earpiece eq 1)
Run(audioroute,"-backspeaker")
earpiece=0
EndIf
EndIf
Sleep(interval)
EndWhile
Run(audioroute,"-backspeaker")

After successfully using the above method, i found another way which was to use a Button Remapping program to allow me to assign a button to the AUDIOROUTE Commands for switching audio. I'm currently still using this method as it seems easier to use. I have assigned my HOME button to switch the audio when I'm running SKYPE, otherwise the HOME button does its normal job when SKYPE is not running.
Same problem is that after the call you have to remember to switch back to the REAR speaker so I wrote this small script to do that (albeit manually) and added a short cut to this script in to my Pocket Plus Today screen.
# Toggle between earpiece and speaker
#Variables - path to AudioRoute
audioroute="\program files\teksoft\audioroute\audioroute.exe"
# Code
Run(audioroute,"-backspeaker")
Exit
By chaning the line "Run(audioroute,"-backspeaker")" to this "Run(audioroute,"-switch")" you make it a Togle switch ON/OFF but as there is no indication as to which mode you are in I felt it better to be just a single way switch to REAR speaker.

THe DWORD that you are monitoring is used for all Notifications so I think this is causing your problem.
I note that when there is an active SKYPE call there is a new folder appears in: HKLM\\System\State\Shell\Notifications\{DD958C3B-1F61-49BF-AEA8-25D1648B91E0}
With a file for Voice calls: [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Shell\Notification s\{DD958C3B-1F61-49BF-AEA8-25D1648B91E0}\100] this is the file to monitor on my HTC TD2 for incoming SKYPE call. If an incoming SKYPE message then it is [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\State\Shell\Notification s\{DD958C3B-1F61-49BF-AEA8-25D1648B91E0}\103].
Therefore if you check your folder when making a SKYP call we can see if the folder number (in BOLD text above) is the same across devices (I have TOPAZ). If the same then see my post below with a link to a program that already exists for this purpose.
Please check the folder that is created when you make a SKYPE call and let me know.

OR you can log in your skype account through app called iSkoot which by default uses the ear speaker

I have HTC TD2 (TOPAZ) and this program Auto Switches AudioRoute back and forth for Native VOIP and SKYPE calls.

Program from the provided link works but from second call by some unknown reason.
