I have just found one or two simple ways to do this on Linux:

1) Launch snd_aloop module
# modprobe snd_aloop

2) Look for Loopback virtual card number:
$ aplay -l
(4 for my example)

3) Set audacious or other sound reader to use hw:4,1 for playback and start 
playing the file, assuming this file is a 8000 samples/s record

4) Set Ekiga to use "Loopback" as capture device and start a call.

One time I also succeeded to use monitor function of pulseaudio, but don't 
hope I could explain this because I don't usually use pulseaudio.
