While you're making a test call Skype should show up as an output. For me this looks like: $ list-source-outputs|grep -E "index|application.name" index: 3 application.name = "PulseAudio Volume Control" index: 4 application.name = "PulseAudio Volume Control" index: 5 application.name = "PulseAudio Volume Control" index: 6 application.name = "PulseAudio Volume Control" index: 12 application.name = "PulseAudio Volume Control" index: 13 application.name = "Skype" I'd misunderstood and thought you had no microphone recording, it sounds like you have no sound altogether. To move the microphone for Skype only I'd do: $ pacmd move-source-output 13 1 (To move to source 1) If Skype doesn't show up at all while making a test call then it's not connecting to Pulseaudio. You need the alsa-plugins-pulseaudio package installed that matches the version of Skype you have (686 or x86_64, also this is why you have two pulseaudio-libs installed, one 32bit and one 64bit copy). Try ldd on the skype binary and see if it contains a line like libasound.so.2 => /lib/libasound.so.2 (0xf763c000) -- imalone http://ibmalone.blogspot.co.uk -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines Have a question?
