I had to start using pulse audio because after a recent alsa upgrade, no matter what I did, my creative x-fi would no longer show as default sound card, but was way down the list, no matter what I did. Anyway, my current problem is I use skype all the time, but after I am in a phone call for a while, when the other person talks, I just hear digital noise/garbage whenever they talk, so I have to hang up. It is causing me a lot of grief because I use skype for business. I am not telling skype to use pulseaudio even though the rest of my apps are, because it doesn't seem to work well with skype, so I just have it use alsa/ctxfi. I don't know what to do, I didn't have this problem a few months ago, and I'm not sure if it's: 1.Since I upgraded from f9 to f10 2.Since I started using pulseaudio 3.Since I switched from sbxfi driver to ctxfi My current system is f10 rpmq alsa alsa-oss-1.0.17-1.fc10.i386 alsa-oss-libs-1.0.17-1.fc10.i386 alsa-utils-1.0.19-1.fc10.i386 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio-1.0.18-2.fc10.i386 alsa-lib-1.0.19-2.fc10.i386 alsa-lib-devel-1.0.19-2.fc10.i386 alsa-tools-1.0.17-1.fc10.i386 bluez-alsa-4.22-2.fc10.i386 alsa-plugins-oss-1.0.18-2.fc10.i386 Thanks in advance!
