you need to specify the device, take a look at

# ls /dev/dsp*
/dev/dsp0.0    /dev/dsp0.1    /dev/dsp1.0    /dev/dsp2.0 /dev/dsp2.1

for example, i can send audio output to headphone jack:
# mplayer -zoom -x 1280 -y 720 -fs -ao oss:/dev/dsp1 -mixer /dev/mixer2 /path/to/file

Haven't tried skype on FreeBSD but there should be a device setting. I've noticed that some machines seem to automatically switch, ie when I plug in headphones to the headphone jack or a mic into a microphone jack it "just works". But other machines don't work automatically and I have to set the device manually as above. A simple way, you can try setting each device to see which one works. :)

OK. Thanks.

I'll give that a try.
