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).

* when I say "enabled" I mean alsa-lib pulse plugin is used by default.
It's not "enabled". Installing it alone doesn't change any default behavior. On GNOME, there is a special set up to override the default PCM with pulse plugin, so all apps are routed over PA. Without that, you'll have to specify explicitly "pluse" PCM to use the pulse routing from alsa-lib.
