Yes the callID is supposed to be a string.

Could you post the sflphoned error ? Use configure --with-debug if you 
don't have any debug messages.

As you are working on a python cli client, you might be interesting to 
have a look at some python code I just pushed in the sflphone repository 
(/tools/pysflphone/).This is some work on a python cli client you can 
reuse if you like.
