I worked very hard on skype. Only effect is that i have sound in booth speakers but there is problem with capture device :/
This is a bug in Skype, not pulseaudio. There are some workarounds mentioned on the PulseAudio wiki: http://www.pulseaudio.org/wiki/PerfectSetup#Skype But unfortunately Skype is closed-source software that we can't fix.
