How to Fix Poor Skype Audio Quality in Linux

boz — Thu, 03/26/2009 - 11:50

For those of you that use Skype for business or personal use, I finally fixed my audio issues with Skype 2.0 in Ubuntu.  I was experiencing poor audio quality (low volume, choppy ouput) since I installed it.  The soluction was simple enough.  In the options menu select "Sound Devices" and then uncheck "Allow Skype to Automatically change my mixer levels".  I found that when I change this setting everything works fine.  The audio is now just a crisp as you can expect with VOIP.
