I brought something similar up in a thread a few months ago. In PoA, 
Harry hears a voice in his head telling him to go ahead and kill 
Sirius. Harry is at a highly emotional state when he hears this 
voice. The more and more I thought about it, I wondered if that voice 
was really Voldemort communicating via the scar. Others on the list 
remarked that it could be Harry's just too emotionally charged and 
it's his conscience speaking, not Voldemort.

Whatever it is, Dumbledore did seem "triumphant" when he learned that 
Harry's scar pain ceased after the Voldemort confrontation in GoF. 
And I highly suspect that the scar link was deeper than we are led to 
believe.
