I just downloaded and tried the last Ubuntu beta release (9.04 – Jaunty Jackalope)
The first package I set up was skype 2.0, everything went great except for the audio call feature.
I adopted the same solution well known for the previous distro (8.04 – Intrepid Ibex) as well as you can do following the lines below:
user@pc:~$ killall pulseaudio
user@pc:~$ sudo apt-get remove pulseaudio
user@pc:~$ sudo apt-get install esound
user@pc:~$ sudo rm /etc/X11/Xsession.d/70pulseaudio
That’s all.
Reboot the system and get free calls with skype again.
Just to say ‘thank you very much!’ This worked perfectly!

Yes, excellent. But in some cases the OSS needs some fixing before it plays everything. I also followed this Ubuntu thread : https://help.ubuntu.com/community/OpenSound.
