Bug Description
It's a normal practice to add white noise to conversation pauses during VoIP calls. That prevent thinking, that connection is broken. Empathy should do it.
When both sides keep silence, there no sound at all in speakers. It's normal practive in IP telephony to substitute silence with a very small generated noise. That increase impression, that connection stil exists.

- Empathy needs "white noise" for VoIP pauses, showing connection hasn't + Empathy needs "comfort noise" for VoIP pauses, showing connection hasn't disconnected. |

Thanks for your bug report and helping to make Ubuntu better. Your Bug Description is confusing, what are you trying to get changed in empathy? Maybe re-wording the description may help me understand it better.
