:( Sorry about that.

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)
