I don't understand why this bug wasn't fixed by renaming /usr/bin/skype to /usr/bin/skype.real, and having a script /usr/bin/skype which simply runs:
#!/bin/bash PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 exec -a /usr/bin/skype /usr/bin/skype.real "$@" ? (I fixed this bug for myself with a similar script in ~/bin.) But anyway, only fixing the desktop file doesn't really count as a fix. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to pulseaudio in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1173073 Title: Broken sounds in Skype Status in “pulseaudio” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “skype” package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Bug description: When skype notify something and play sound (for i.e., contact became online or send me message, or calling), it sounds with wheezing.
