I've just done the route from cape town to cairo ( took me 37 days  )
I was worried about the visa to Sudan as well and tried all sorts of stuff to try to get it organised before.
In the end I just went into the Sudanese Embassy in Addis and got it in the same day. Normally it takes until the next day but i was in a hurry and kicked up a fuss until I got it.
It is a transit visa and if you have an Egyptian visa beforehand there is no problem at all.
I know you can get the Egyptian Visa in addis as well, and i'm not sure if they will issue the Sudanese one so easily without the Egyptian one.
But bottom line is once you dont passs addis without it , it is not such a big deal to get it.
And another thing, Sudan was one of the easiest places I passed through from the point of view of customs etc and Egypt was without doubt the worst
