Worth checking the pkg-message also; 2. Sound Since the OSS interface was removed, Skype now uses linux-alsa compat packages. By default you get one device corresponding to your default OSS dsp device (so Skype will use it for ringing, incoming voice and mic). If that doesn't suit needs, you can map the other dsp devices for example by editing /compat/linux/etc/alsa/pcm/pcm-oss.conf. You need to (re)start Skype after you edit this file in order to get Skype pick up the changes. Adding the following to the stock file, and then starting Skype and choosing in Options-->Sound Devices: Speakers: oss1 will let you use the second dsp (usually the front panel connectors for your headphones, while still hearing the call ringing and other notification on the first dsp device (presumably the one you connect your speakers to). pcm.oss1 { type oss device /dev/dsp1 hint { description "Open Sound System" } } ctl.oss1 { type oss device /dev/mixer1 hint { description "Open Sound System" } } Cheers Craig B
