The new Skype has pulseaudio support. You can add pulseaudio to
buildinputs and Skype wil talk to pulseaudio (only!).
So which should be the default?
I couldn't make my microfone work with Alsa at all because the sampling
rates didn't match. My sound card records with 100kHz but Skype expects
48kHz or such. I couldn't even understand myself.
Of course we can use a configuration option. Which should be default?
Alsa or Pulseaudio? The latter will work in more cases out of the box
but it requires the user configuring and starting Pulseaudio.
Thoughts?
