Have you made sure that your mic is set to capture sound via
alsamixer?

Run alsamixer in a terminal and hit tab to get to capture devices.
Then have a gander at what is selected. You need to make sure your
mic is selected as the capture device. Otherwise, it may have
defaulted to something other than your mic. On my system it chooses
the first CD-ROM for the capture device for some reason.

Also, make sure that you have mic boost on as well. You can mute
the mic in the Playback section as well so you don't hear your own
voice as well. When you run the skype test call you should bear
better results.
