Summary:                    lack of full duplex operation for ati-ixp chipset.
Description: 
skype, ekiga, audacity, and generally any program that needs to both
transmit and receive, using isolated paths, fails in playback when
recording.  In skype, I sound great at the far end, but reception may or
may not work, with emphasis on the not.  What I hear in the phones, or in
the speakers, sounds like what you would get if you took a sentence of
spoken words, break it up into say 5ms pieces, and play them at maybe 10
of these little snippets per second, so that the resultant sound is broken
up to the point of no comprehension, and stretched in time by a
considerable amount.

In audacity, simultanious playback, or play one track while recording
another, likewise fails in that only very short snippets of the played
track are output to the phones or speakers.

Likewise, ekiga suffers from this same effect, I'm told I sound great on
teh other end, but I can't hear more than half a word occasionally.

The driver works as full-duplex.  Try a simple test with arecord and aplay.
