[Bug 1291259] [NEW] Kubuntu 13.10 64bit, Skype has no sound because skype.desktop has PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 instead 30

 

Public bug reported:

Kubuntu 13.10 64bit

2014-03-12: installed skype from Ubuntu Repo, but no sound.

>From the page:
...http://www.webupd8.org/2013/10/get-sound-working-in-skype-with-ubuntu.html
I learned the resolving for original skype installs
...sudo sed -i 's/^Exec=.*/Exec=env PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 skype %U/' /usr/share/applications/skype.desktop

Checking /usr/share/applications/skype.desktop I descovered that this line had in my Ubuntu-install
...PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60

Setting it to 30 brought the sound back.

Thank you all for the extraordinary work with ubuntu.

Hope this helps someone
