Skype sounds audio distorted in Ubuntu

Now that I have Skype installed on Ubuntu 13.04 I discovered that the various Skype sounds were distorted. It was almost like the sounds had some static mixed in with them. I thought it was probably just a problem with the new version of Skype, or the new sound drivers. However, I made a discovery that f ixed the issue. I tried the AlsaMixer f ix, but it didnt work. (A reboot simply resets the PCM to 100 again, and the sound is still crackly.) So it all came down to a simple f ile edit to get it f ixed. Edit the f ile /etc/pulse/def ault.pa using the command:

sudo gedit /et c/pulse/default .pa

Add the f ollowing to the end of the line shown: So af ter adding tsched=0 to the end of the line loadmodule module-udev-detect you will be all set. Af ter a reboot the sounds is still good. Enjoy! Hope it works f or you.
