 Hi all,
 I intend to get Skype running on my F11 machine. Here is the setup:
 F11: 2.6.30.8-64.fc11.i586
 Skype: beta 2.1.0.47
 Hardware: HDA VIA VT82xx based on a realtek 272 audio chip

 I run
 '''$ pulseaudio -vvv'''

 to get some idea what is going on. Then I make a call to Skype echo
 service, and after 2 seconds or so, the friendly lady on the other end
 stops talking - no sound. At that moment, I also get this output from
 pulseaudio - here is the final bit of the log:

 D: source.c: Processing rewind...

 '''E: memblock.c: Assertion 'length' failed at pulsecore/memblock.c:357,

 Any idea what might be wrong?
 Thanks
 Martin
