Well… its more than that. Sorry, I didn´t mention it initially in my upsetness. Different users. Family and other relatives mostly. All on Skype. On Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. So client support needs to be cross platform. And its needs to be easy… well… for my father I can also try Skype 4.3 with PulseAudio. I don´t want to use PulseAudio. It still makes issues where plain ALSA just works, including: - OpenAL games sound stuttering (makes PlaneShift unplayable) - Muting loudspeakers volume on plugging a loudspeaker via cinch to phone output… laptop only has this one. Just works with ALSA and internal speakers are automatically muted by laptop it seems. With PulseAudio no sound on plugged in speakers. Everytime I had a go at PulseAudio something that worked perfectly before doesn´t work anymore. Its version 5.0. I danced the install and purge dance with Network Manager, but since version 0.9 it mostly behaves. But PulseAudio? On version 5.0 and still not usable for me.
