All:
Fiber-optics terminate at my home for Internet and phone service. While the
transmission medium is light based when I pick up the phone receiver, the human
communication factor is always audible. To eliminate smoke signals and garage
door openers, how about just limiting QSOs to something like:
"Electronic devices capable of emitting and receiving audible transmissions..."
Still gets a bit sticky since my description above would technically make legal
electronic drum sets :)
In all seriousness, come up with a consensus on the spectrum's real world "high
bar" for audible radio waves as opposed to light waves medium. When an
enterprising ham breaks the "high bar" barrier, you move the contest goal post
as well.
