Dear Henry, I apologize if the wiki page was not clear. snd-dummy is an ALSA driver (loadable module for the linux kernel) that you load like the other ALSA modules using the 'modprobe' command, no need at all to create an asound.conf file. You can find an example on how to load snd-dummy in the first lines of the script mod_skypiax/configs/startskype.sh I modified the wiki page, could you check is now clear? Thanks for reporting this, please continue to help us!

I am currently creating a /etc/asound.conf for skype to load the "fake" sound driver. I do hear sound, but it's not perfect, it's very choppy and it gives me error message when starting skype. The following is my asound.conf setting. Hopefully someone can shed some light : pcm.plugfile{ type plug slave { pcm infile format S16_LE channels 1 rate 16000 } }
pcm.infile { type file slave { pcm null } file /dev/dsp infile /dev/dsp }
by using this configuration. skype spit out error messages as follow but still works: ALSA lib control.c:909:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL plugfile ALSA lib control.c:909:(snd_ctl_open_noupdate) Invalid CTL infile
