Sound problems with skype

Ok so i have a HP Pavilion HPE h8-1150uk Desktop PC just got it, Windows 7 64 Bit, brand new.
I get sound fine with Google Chrome aswell as Games, but whenever i connect to a skype conversation, i can only hear skype over Chrome, i can still get game sound while in a skype call, but for some reason i cant get chrome sound(for youtube etc).
When i play somthing on youtube, then connect to skype, it makes a sound, then somehow overides chrome sounds and i only get skype/game sounds.
Im using headphones aswell.
I dont get it, any1 have any suggestions?
Im baffled here. 

Hi Teff,
It sounds confused. 
Check this setting in your sound.
Taskbar > Sound > Playback Devices > Communications
Try setting it to "Do nothing"
I hope this helps.

    == This happened ==
    Not sure how often
    == After innstalling windows 7

    As a suggestion I'd put the Text_io segments into their own begin - exception - end sub-blocks within the main code. This way if Text_io does raise an exception you can catch it earlier as it may be able to recover - That is if it is a text_io exception.
    Other than that you;ll have to step through in Debug.

  • I have sounds problems with iOS 7

    I have sounds problems with iOS 7. I can not hear my music, all the apps have no sounds. Only when I ask Siri has sound but it's too loud and awful. I found 2 errors with I ask to Siri what things she can do in Spanish the is an error and one word or If I ask who am I? She said that I have to go to settings and indicate her who I am but I already have that configured. And I try to configure again just in case, I do the same question and she still doesn't who I am.

    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

    Is there a fix yet for the no sound problem with lion on the iMac without having to restart every time I switch the computer on?

    Try booting in Safe Mode by holding the the shift key immediately after powering on your system. Safe boot mode will for a directory check of your startup volume, then load only the required kernal extensions (kext files), and deletes some cache files. Once the system boots into Safe Mode you can simply restart the system to see whether the issue has been resolved.
    If you still have the issue try resetting the SMC by shutting down the system and disconnecting the power cord for ~15 seconds, then reconnecting the power cord. Next, reset the parameter RAM (PRAM) by holding down the option-option-P-R keys after powering ON the system. Wait until the iMac restarts twice, then let the system boot normally.

  • Really weird sound problem with rhythmbox[SOLVED]

    Well, I can't find anything on this, so i'm posting it here. I have no sound problems with alsa or other gstreamer apps(totem, banshee plays sound just fine). But when I try to play something in rhythmbox it just does not work. Mostly there is no sound, but every couple of seconds you can hear a distorted sound that is suposed to be playing for a moment. Rhythmbox does not issue any warnings or errors when launched from terminal. Is this some kind of bug?

  • I have problems with skype

    I have problems with skype I can not get to the phone on a stationary Russia. why?

    With the amount of information you've provided it's impossible to offer a potential solution.  We can't see your computer so we need to know the details of your problem and setup, i.e.:
    what version of iPhoto are you using?
    what system version are you running?
    what problems with iPhoto are you having?  Describe in detail.
    what fixes have you tried?
    where is your library located?
    did you apply any updates or upgrades just prior to the problem occurring?
    are you running a "managed" or "referenced" library?
    what type of Mac?
    how much free space on your boot drive?
    OT

  • Is there a problem with skype at the moment?

    Hello folks.
    I'm running a G4 and 10.411 using an old version of skype with a software patch that I found in one of the skype topics on this site. It has been working fine for months now. I don't use video just audio. I have a subscription to call land lines. The problem I am having is that I can call out and hear the person I am calling, but they can't hear me. Is there a problem with skype today? Or have they made changes as of today that do not permit people to use the patch and an old version of skype? Any information would be much appreciated.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The problem has seemed to have gone away. The problem started yesterday on two different computers. Today, on one of the computers I ran a utility called Mcjanitor that I had installed years ago but very rarely ran it. I neglected to try skype prior to running the utility. On computer #2 I tried booting from an old utility disk called techtoolpro. I was unable to boot from the disk after several attempts and restarts. Both computers are running better and skype now works again on both. I sent an email earlier today to a tech support guy from my ISP about my recent problems with skype. In conclusion I can't explain why skype now works on both computers. I can only guess that I reset something when I used (attempted to use) a utility disk. The other possibility is that my ISP guy did something on his end. Or, lastly, that skype had problems that were remedied by skype today.

  • Sound problems with movie

    I just purchased the movie "Overboard" in HD. The movie video plays ok, but the sound keeps going in and out.
    I don't understand why this is happening. My music plays ok and I'm not having any other sound problems with my
    computer.  I am running Itunes on a Windows 8.1 desktop computer (Gateway).
    I couldn't figure out how to re-download it or repair it.
    If anyone can help, I'd appreciate it!
    Thanks!

  • Sound problems with my Visio

    Hi, I have read that people are having sound problems with their Vision M players, hissing etc.
    I wonder if anyone has had the problem I have - I cannot alter the volume! When I plug in either headphones or portable speakers into the M, using the touch pad has no effect on the volume. If I unplug it the touch pad then alters (or appears to) the volume - judging by the scale on the right of the screen. Plug the phones back in again and I get the same one level of volume.
    Also, the screen goes blank when I plug in phones or speakers.
    I am an MP3 player virgin and have no idea if the fault is mine or not.
    I bought my Vision M from Amazon, who very quickly sent me a replacement when I contacted them - even before I had returned the original. But the replacement has the same problems.
    Any comments would be welcome.
    John

    woggydog, thats what happens when your plugging outputs into the Audio/Video out socket of the player using the dock or supplied connector... it goes into line Out Mode, which cuts out audio from changing since the amplifier would be able to control this on a sound system.
    The one that shouldn't do this is the one on the top right of the player.

  • Sound problems with Portege M600 using WXP SP3

    I have had on-going sound problems with my laptop and feel so frustrated - please help!
    I have downloaded the sound driver (abt a million times - and tried uninstalling then reinstalling) - and repeatedly get no volume icon on the desk top and a message saying "no sound driver can be found".
    I did manage to fix it once - when i had WIndows Vista installed - by finding some obscure patch - but this time around - no solutions.
    Can anyone help - it is so frustrating!!!!

    The mentioned patches are part of Win XP SP2 & SP3
    So ensure that all service packs are installed.
    Then go to device manager and delete the High Definition Audio Controller (in system devices) and additionally delete all devices from Audio, Video and Game controller section.
    Then reboot the notebook.
    Wait until the device would be recognized again and then install the sound driver!

  • Sound problems with Satellite A100 (PSAA8)

    I am continually having sound problems with the laptop. Whilst I hear the windows start up noise and beeps, I cannot hear any sound from things like CDs, iTunes, Media Player - in fact an error message will always come up. In Media Player the error message "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device......." comes up. I have a the standard pre-installed Realtek sound thing on my laptop. I have tried downloading a newer driver from the Toshiba support centre, but I don't know what to do with the zip file. Also in Control Panel, Sounds, everything is greyed-out.
    Hope someone can help cos I am going nuts with this :-)
    Thanks

    Hi again
    I have downloaded the Realtek sound driver from the Tosh page and unzipped it.
    (I have chosen the driver for Vista!!! I suppose you use Vista???)
    There is a folder called sound. Access this folder and run Setup.exe
    But before you will start this procedure you could access the device manager (control panel -> computer -> device manager) and choose sound, video, and game controller. There you have to mark realtek AC and click on uninstall and reboot the unit.
    After this sound driver removing you should start the new driver installation described above. (setup.exe)
