[Bug 968302] [NEW] Skype on amd64 requires libasound2-plugins:i386 for sound but doesn't install it
Public bug reported:
On amd64 precise, skype (the i386 package, since that's what we're meant
to use on 64bit, not the 64bit package from skype's website) requires
libasound2-plugins:i386 in order to get any sound (documented on
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Skype). This package needs to be
manually installed, and one would think that it would get pulled in as a
dependency or something if it's required. If it's not installed then one
gets the error "Problem with Audio Playback" when trying to make calls,
and Skype does not play the startup sound.
** Affects: skype (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
