Skype -2 overtaking Banshee sound,

Hi there,

Yet again an issue with skype!!

I have the latest skype install and a snd_hda_intel sound card (see this topic for more information on the card http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=88475 )

Anyway, skype kinda work as it should, even though the webcam work once every 4/5 call and it usually stop working after 4/5 minutes I then I can't start it again.

this issue I would like to resolve most of all, is the sound.

When skype start, if banshee is running, banshee will not transmit any more sound and skype neither; if skype is starting without banshee also running the sound is then working for skype; but If I start banshee after both sound are not working again.

I follow the wiki for skype to add the ~/.asoundrc but I do not have the option available in skype for dmix.

Any suggestion?
