Adapt Wordpress plugins to work in combination

This use case involves the combination of two plugins available on Wordpress.org. The plugins are Auto Post Scheduler and WP Smart Taxonomy. [login to view URL] [login to view URL] Background: I am running a news aggregation site that runs a script to create drafts. In order to fully process these drafts, I use WP Smart Taxonomy to match keywords in the body text. WPST then matches those keywords with pre-existing categories and assigns a category to a post where the keyword is found. I also need to use Auto Post Scheduler to automate the publishing of these drafts. The problem: Whatever hooks WP Smart Taxonomy is using, the plugin seems only to work if I publish or update a draft manually. Whenever I use Auto Post Scheduler to publish the posts, the action used by Auto Post Scheduler fails to trigger the action for WPST to assign categories to the published drafts. Your job: Adapt either plugin, or both, so that draft that is published automatically with Auto Post Scheduler also has categories automatically assigned to it by WP Smart Taxonomy.
