More precisely from time of F20 skype for me works only on an i686 netbook and I could not get any sound from skype where I tried it on two (a desktop and a laptop) x86_64 machines regardless of a skype version (4.0.0.8-fedora, 4.2.0.13-fedora, skype-4.3.0.37-1.fc20). Other sound producing applications do not seem to have problems (but there they are not i686). > omitting "PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60" solves my problem! I tried various values for PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC, or omitting that entirely, and that did not change results. From a pavucontrol display a microphone, when plugged it, seems to be active but if skype gets any of this signal I cannot tell. Before updating these machines to Fedora 20 skype worked just fine for a number of years. I did not have a chance to try with F21 yet.

Kind regards Joachim Backes I always start Skype with this command: env PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 skype %U I do the same (since F20), but does not help in F21 :-( Hi Temlakos, omitting "PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60" solves my problem! Kind regards Joachim Backes Temlakos That suggests when I do the upgrade from F20->F21, I should use pulseaudio with no latency. True?
