I installed a patched 3.2.6 version from
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/ekiga/+bug/332543/comments/20
, which fixes me not being able to call.

When I call the echo test, I get video but no audio at all. The volume
change icon below the video stays greyed out.

When I try to play a test sound (in the sound events preferences
section) through the default device with pulseaudio enabled, that works
fine the first time. When I repeatedly play a sound, it works fine for
the first 10 seconds or so, after that it starts crackling. If I
continue playing the test sound, the crackling stays for another 2 to 20
seconds, and then sound stops and ekiga hangs at 100% cpu. The UI also
becomes unresponsive and I have to kill it. Banshee is having no trouble
playing music at the same time, so PulseAudio is not having any
problems.

When I try to play a test sound through the "HDA Intel (PTLIB/ALSA)" device 
with pulseaudio suspended or pulseaudio enabled but not actually playing 
anything at that moment, I get sound but it is as if every 50 ms sample gets 
repeated for 5 seconds before ekiga decides to play the next 50 ms part. Ekiga 
still advances through the sound file, but veeeeerrrrryyyy slowly and stuttery. 
This behaviour is the same I had with PulseAudio under Jaunty when I tried to 
play any kind of sound after my laptop resumed from a suspend. Killing PA every 
time I resumed  was a workaround there. In Karmic this PA problem was fixed.
