[gentoo-amd64] Skype and libasound_module_pcm_empty.so

[Lorenzo Milesi]

Hi

I tried to use skype 1.3.0.53-r1 right now after long time, but it
complains that it has problem with the sound device.
Running from shell says:
ALSA lib pcm.c:2109:(snd_pcm_open_conf) Cannot open shared library
/usr/lib/alsa-lib/libasound_module_pcm_empty.so

Googling didn't produce results.

Do you have ideas?
Thanks

Do you have any other programs running that might have control of the
sound card?  I've had problems with firefox (and some other programs)
not having sound when another program (i.e. rhythmbox) already was
playing sound.  I can't check what kind of error output I get right
now, but that looks like it might be about the same.

we're going to provide a updated emul-alsalibs soon.  this fixes a
similar problem, so I imagine it'll fix yours.
