Any suggestions for how to fix this?

First you must get Skype for Linux version 2.004 I think. Then in a
root terminal do
yum remove alsa-plugins-pulseaudio
When that is done your sound will come back.

There is absolutely no reason to remove the alsa pulse audio plugin
whatsoever. Progams that require full access to the soundcard, such as
skype and high end audio apps, can be run by running the "pasuspender"
app to tell pulse audio to stop working until the app you want to run is
done. For skype the command would look like "pasuspender skype". This
is something that has been brought up several times on the mailing list,
and pasuspender is a FAR easier method of running the programs you want,
rather than crippling the sound server like Karl thinks is a good idea.
