There's a property of the application, called "display dialogs".  Did
you try setting this to "never"?  Here's what it says in the
dictionary...

        display dialogs always/error dialogs/never  -- controls whether or not
Photoshop displays dialogs

I don't know if this will work for you, but it may be worth a try.
