Thank you for not top-posting. It appears everybody forgot their 
netiquette last week :)

Not as I understand the OP's request.

As I understand the request, when sip1 originates a call to sip2, sip2 
should just start playing audio from sip1 without requiring any action on 
sip2's part.

Several posters have already suggested the solution lies in having sip1 
add the appropriate sip header in the INVITE to ask sip2 to automagically 
answer so sip2 can play the sound file.

Unfortunately, the OP seems to lack the ability or motivation to read the 
documentation to be able to take advantage of the suggestions.

Even more unfortunately, auto-answer is device and configuration specific. 
My cisco 9760 just needs a SIP header added while my Polycom 501 needs a 
different SIP header and the correct bits twiddled in it's humongous 
configuration files.
