Mageia forum

I have just installed Skype 4.2.0.11 on Mageia 4 using the get-skype package and could only make a Test Call by

Code: Select all

killall pulseaudio && skype

as per https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=36&t=1121. I progressed further by editing paprefs to enable the Simultaneous setting, now Test Call works but only if I manually start Skype after system is running, it fails if Skype runs automatically on starting session. Any ideas on the reason for this?

Similar issue is partly covered in our MAQeia starting at post viewtopic.php?p=44730#p44730

Now o/k I found that in kde control centre -> Multimedia -> Audio & Video settings I hadn't set all Device Preferences to prefer Simultaneous Output changing this fixed the problem.
