As an update. I took your advice and purchased several pci soundcards and I get the same result as I did when I was using the onboard sound. When I try to make a call I get this interesting output.

Man, what is going on? Thanks Derrick

Skype can be frustrating. I've been using it for a while and to get it working properly, I had to change from the on-board via sound to real sound cards on several machines. It now works wonderfully. I'm only using it with current but with different sound cards. Each is enabled in the machines loader.conf. I'm using kde and don't know how much of a difference that might make. You might want to look at http://forum.skype.com/bb/ and do a freebsd and other search. I found some interesting sysctl suggestions, that I didn't actually need in the end but you might just get lucky. :)

Good luck, in my opinion it is worth the work.
