Skype doesn't work in Karmic Koala

I had to uninstall the Jaunty package from Multiverse…

apt-get remove skype skype-common

…and then re-install the 8.10+ version from Skype. You may need to restart pulseaudio and mute and un-mute the microphone it working again.

dpkg -i http://www.skype.com/go/getskype-linux-beta-ubuntu-64
