	Skype shows 'volume_adjust: SOUND_MIXER_WRITE_IGAIN failed: No such
	device or address' thoousands of times. That is a very annoying
	bahavior that can not be disabled but can be hidden if the sandard
	output is redirected to /dev/null.

Fix: Apply the attached patch
How-To-Repeat: 
	At the command prompt type:

	setenv SKYPE_RESOURCES_PATH /usr/X11R6/share/skype
	/usr/X11R6/bin/skype_bin

I've decided to handle it differently, since your patch supresses 
all messages to the console. I only don't show the IGAIN failure 
messages. 

Thanks for your "reminder" that those messages are very anyoing if you 
don't start it from a menu of an DE.
