I don't think this bug should be marked invalid, because:
- It most certainly is a regression - it used to work in Hardy.
- The default configuration in Skype is to use the default audio devices, which seems quite fair for any application whether proprietary or not. The bug isn't in Skype - it's in Ubuntu's audio subsystem, which isn't returning a valid default audio device any more.
- As I understand it, one of the main aims of Ubuntu is to make things easy for unskilled users, and any regression such as this makes it hard. New users especially will simply assume that it's one of the things that doesn't work in Ubuntu.
So IMHO if the problem is that pulseaudio's "default configuration" can't work with applications like skype, it should probably be marked as 'Won't Fix' (and the bug notes should say why).

Why is this set to fix released? The only way to fix it is to remove pulseaudio. I have two computers where skype is not working. |

The default task is jaunty's, not intrepid's. Please nominate an intrepid task using the "Nominate for release" link. |
