Public bug reported: Binary package hint: pulseaudio
I was trying out Skype 2.1.0.47 on Ubuntu Karmic (up to date as of today, 1st Sept 2009), but trying a test call did not work, and pulseaudio crashed. The problem seems to happen every time I try. I expected to be able to hear a voice on the test call, and then record and hear my own voice as is usual with Skype test calls. What happened was I heard the noise that indicates a call is starting, but the test call voice never appeared. After that Skype would not respond to me asking it to quit (via the GUI), I had to pkill -3 skype to kill it. This is the last few lines of the log of pulseaudio -vv (which is attached in full): D: module-suspend-on-idle.c: Source alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo becomes busy. D: protocol-native.c: Client skype changes volume of sink alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor. E: source.c: Assertion 'pa_cvolume_compatible(volume, &s->sample_spec)' failed at pulsecore/source.c:765, function pa_source_set_volume(). Aborting.
