[pulseaudio-discuss] PulseAudio and Skype

[frank at sudo.hu]

nothing since then. i have the same symptoms that you mention with the 
test sound. i have got no response neither from the list (except yours) 
nor on the #pulseaudio irc channel. what versions have you tried this 
setup with? i'm planning to compile the newest alsa+pulseaudio and give 
those a try next.
