Mine works with built-in laptop mic, and it also works with inexpensive
old headset (Manhattan brand) that plugs in with mini-plugs. No webcam.

Internal microphone, microphone, line in.

Built-in Audio
Profile: Analog Stereo Duplex, Analog Stereo Output, Analog Stereo
Input, Off

These don't change when the headset is plugged in.

Don't see a conflict; aplay filename.wav plays fine as do mplayer, etc.
Alsa packages installed, pasting to fit width:

You could poke around the skype linux forum too for ideas:
http://community.skype.com/t5/Linux/bd-p/Linux

You've  probably already searched the list archives here...
That's all I've got.  Glad to answer any other questions.
