What to do about that crack at the side of the stairs.

When decorating I'm often asked if there is anything that I can do to stop the crack between the stairs stringer and the wall from re-appearing. I've always said not really, I'll rake it and fill it with caulk and it will look good when I walk out the door but it will come back in time.But now I've got a customer and I can tell that he's not really happy with that answer.Has anyone ever used a silicone bead for this? or anything else?
