Ok, thats only in ekiga?
Can you please try it disabling esd, or any other program that could have the
access to your sound card open. (For instance firefox usually tries to access
the sound card directly)

I'm not sure I understand what you mean. This may be a problem in alsa with
your sound card or that your sound card doesn't support simultaneous access
(you probably could do that configuring dmix in alsa if needed).
