Actually 2 of them.
1. I can only make one connection per reboot, otherwise there is
"something wrong with the audio device" when a new connection is
attempted. My headphones continue to function normally. And my own
voice is flawless both in my phones and at the other end of the call.
This is a known bug, Skype doesn't close the device. Restarting Skype
fixes that.
Use skype_dsp_hijacker.

2. Reception is very intermittent, and coupled with a lot of
chuttering noises. This I verified is on my end by trying the echo123
facility, even the ladies recorded voice was chopped up into just
fractions of a word here and there.
This is also a common problem. I fixed this with dmix-ing.

And where might this 'dmix plugin' be found for an FC5 system?

As a point of note, skype only opens a path to /dev/dsp once on the
reboot and restart. It shows 3 opens to /dev/mixer when a failed call
to echo123 is live, and leaves 2 of them behind when it has been hung up.
The audio system is an ATX in an HP laptop. OS is 386 FC5 with all
updates on an amd64 turion system.
Does anybody have a clue to share?
