The problem not in the skype. The problem in the linux pulse audio libs. I try to setup pulse audio server on freebsd and configure to tcp/ip protocol - works fine. But linux pulse client with the same config don't work (I tried simple console utils). I don't know how to trace problem. But possible pulse audio libs require some missing lib (open by dlopen)
