I have been puzzling through some old posts here on skype. I need
it
working for a conference call monday morning.
Subject: No sound in Skype on Fedora 64-bit
Seems to be talking about installing lpf-skype even on an x86_64 system
and it basically works? Some sound problems but work around them?
Or:

I can always run it on my samsung phone, but want to use it on my
notebook.
Hi Robert,
I was able to get Skype working on both of my Fedora 21 systems by
following these steps:
The "rules" say to perform a full update first. Usually when I do this
something breaks and so do so at your own risk.
yum -y update
Install Skype and the 32-bit pulseaudio files:
yum -y install lpf-skype
Here is the part that should fix your sound issues:
yum -y install pulseaudio-libs.i686 alsa-plugins-pulseaudio.i686
Then:
Open Applications->System Tools->lpf skype
Give root and then guest password
To run Skype: Open Applications->Internet->Skype
I hope this works for you! I have to say they did a good job when they
created this application.
