I have also not working
video works with a version of Skype 2.1.0.81

Which FreeBSD version and arch was this on, and does your camera
need the Linux libv4l?

pulseaudio does not work with Skype version 2.2.0.25 and 2.1.0.81
my system is missing device /dev/dsp4

 Well you need to replace /dev/dsp4 with whatever dsp device your mic

on a webcam you probably also need to kldload snd_uaudio, and if then
it still doesn't work you may need a patch too:

I was not able to configure pulseaudio for Skype to work with an
external microphone...

 The second link you quoted is about how I got it to work:

 Good luck! :)

Does this mean that patches and ports are on the way to make the latest Skype work on FreeBSD?

Thanks!
