I think I have somewhat of a solution.

I was able to get Skype to run perfectly fine, just as it did on Hardy. I set 
all options to pulse audio, then ran the following commands:
sudo echo "deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ hardy restricted main 
multiverse universe" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get install libasound2-plugins=1.0.15-1ubuntu3 
libasound2=1.0.15-3ubuntu4 libpulse0=0.9.10-1ubuntu1 -d
sudo dpkg -i /var/cache/apt/archives/lib*

reboot

.
Unfortunately, this completely breaks every package manager on Ubuntu.
Fixing the package managers will undo the changes, and can be done with this 
command:
sudo apt-get install -f

.
.
After returning to the normal Jaunty libraries, pulse appears to run perfectly 
fine with multiple applications running at the same time (tested Skype, 
Audacity, Flash plugin, Mplayer). The only problem I've noticed was that Pulse 
Audio "test" does not work correctly under:
System>Preferences>Sound

It gives this error:
audiotestsrc wave=sine freq=512 ! audioconvert ! audioresample ! gconfaudiosink 
profile=chat: Failed to connect: Connection refused
