On non-GNOME setup (not sure about KDE4, though), the "default" is the
alsa-lib dmix.  In most cases, it's exclusive with PA unless PA uses
the dmix again.  Thus, skype works, but only when you don't play
something via PA.

I uninstalled PA little after installing 11.1, so I can easily be
wrong. But I think that, since 11.1, PA is enabled* always (on 11.0
was only enabled with Gnome). And what is worse, there isn't a QT/KDE
equivalent of pavucontrol. I suppose right now Gnome uses pavucontrol
like the default mixer app, true? In KDE you would use PA but have no
control over it.

* when I say "enabled" I mean alsa-lib pulse plugin is used by default.
