Is the CPU at 100% all of the time, or only when Skype is in use?
Is Skype configured to use PulseAudio?

If I set Skype to use PulseAudio for the ringing device, it uses 100%
CPU when it plays sounds, and for several seconds afterwards. This
doesn't always happen the first few times it plays sounds, but will
start happening after it has been in use for a while (it doesn't take
long). Setting it to the ALSA device works.

Strangely enough, I had this problem on a previous Fedora version (9?
10? I forget), but it eventually went away - after some software
updates, if I recall correctly, but my memory is pretty hazy on this.
Seems it's back in F11... :-(

BTW, I haven't tried using PulseAudio for the sound in/sound out
devices, so I don't know how that would behave. I have a USB headset
that is used only for Skype.
