Skype fixes for ubuntu 13.04

Trick source
  • Pulse audio not detected: The Skype binary is 32bit and it is linked against a 32bit version of GStreamer, but the 32bit version of the PulseAudio client isn’t installed by default. This is easily fixed by running:
    
      $ sudo apt-get install libpulse0:i386
    
    
    Once done this pulseuadio will be recognized, but the sound will be garbled the fix is
  • Go to /usr/bin
  • rename the skype executabe for skype.bin
  • Create the following script and name it as /usr/bin/skype
    
     #!/bin/bash
     PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=60 skype.bin
