-restart system.
-fix seems to be required to start skype with pulseaudio 4 when sound is distorted or absent:
-<code>
-env PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 skype %U</code>
-gnome menu entry to be updated using: Some systems require 60
-<code>sudo sed -i 's/^Exec=.*/Exec=env PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 skype %U/' /usr/share/applications/skype.desktop</code>
-if skype doesn't start automatically with system, it needs to be added to "Startup Applications".
