Skype audio in only one direction?

[fba]

Hi all,

Now that I resolved the issue with getting SFA running on Ubuntu server 9.10, I am running in to another interesting issue.

If a call comes in to SFA from a Skype account, everything works great. However, if I set up an extension to dial a Skype user, the Skype user can hear me, but I can't hear them.

In my extensions.conf file, I have the following extension set up :

exten => 1000,1,Dial(skype/skypeusername)

If I pick up a SIP phone, and dial 1000, user "skypeusername" can hear me fine, but I can't hear them.

Also, just for fun, I just tried using the echo line with the extension :

exten => 1001,1,Dial(skype/echo123)

When I dial extension 1001, the call claims to connect, but I cannot hear the expected instructions.

Anyone else had this problem and fixed it?

Thanks!

Nevermind.. I solved this one with a little more digging around.

The problem appears to be that in chan_skype.conf I had both "disallow" and "allow" commented out. By uncommenting those, and setting diallow to "all" and allow to "ulaw, alaw, g729" I can now hear the voice of the echo test. (Just in case someone else hits this same problem. )
