I tried the .asoundrc thing, but neither with pulse running, nor with
'killall pulseaudio' will Skype work, neither with 'pulse' nor the
default device. It's always 'problems with audio playback'.
Anyway, Ubuntu isn't the only distro to switch to default-PA, so here's

Ulrich, Skype is not the only issue with PulseAudio (though one of the
most annoying ones). Including PulseAudio in the coming LTS release
doesn't look too wise to me either, but it's included and we'll have to

Hello,
I can also semi confirm this bug. Heres what happens with me (As of

1) Start up skype (skype in terminal)

3) Try calling someone, skype freezes and either requires killing the process
But I can confirm that for me the pasuspender skype workaround does

I am also getting very weak incoming sound with my non-gnome recording
