Does anyone out there have Skype working with an

Audigy2 ZS)?
I just installed it, plugged my headset into the front panel Headphones
and Line2/Mic2 jack, and called the echo service. I can hear my voice
OK but the other end sounds TERRIBLE, full of pops and clicks.
Is Skype for Linux really such a piece of crap, that it won't work with
one of the best supported devices?
i've used it on an ICH5 device. it worked fine. very susceptible to
network quality of service issues though, and both ends must be using a
headset to avoid stupid echoes. one of my call targets had to switch
from wireless to wired connectivity with his router in order for us to
get acceptable quality.
Yeah I have a headset, and I'm plugged directly into my router. No
wireless.
I am wondering if the Skype echo service is just overloaded.
Is there a public network QoS/latency test I can use, similar to the old
"DSL bandwidth testers"?
