mixer problem? Ekiga and skype calls together give audio errors

["H.S." <hs.samix@gmail.com>]

Hello,

Perhaps I am trying to do something that is not possible, though
certainly it is inconvenient.

If I try to make a call with ekiga when a skype call is active (and the
other way around), I get an error saying there is a problem with a sound
device. I was under the impression that the mixer takes care of such
simultaneous use of audio devices. Other applications seems to work
together without any problem. What am I doing wrong here? Is this even
supposed to work?

This is on Debian Testing.

Thanks.
