Here I am again with a new problem. I've got problems getting skype to work with pulseaudio. When I change pulseaudio to debug mode, I can see these and similar messages in /var/log/messages:

...and so on. I really don't know what's going on and I really want to use skype in Gentoo. I can use it in Windows though, that's no problem.
And the strange thing is: When I start up skype, then I can hear the startup sound. When I issue a test call, I can hear something clipped until it goes silent. Also my internet connection suffers then, which is perfect otherwise.
P.S.: My system is a Fujitsu Lifebook A530 with Gentoo x86 ( Kernel 3.3.8 ) and multiple desktop environments (Gnome 3.2, KDE, XFCE, LXDE and Enlightenment). I preferably use the enlightenment desktop. |
