Public bug reported: In the last week or so Skype audio in Saucy has broken. I mostly don't hear anything but occassionally when I try to make a test call a get loud distortion until I kill Skype (and in some cases I need to reboot to get rid of it).
I am running Intel, Skype 4.2.0.11 (the multiarch binary for 12.04 from the skype.com). Skype is a core requirement for many of us to work, so this is a pretty critical bug.
