Fixing Skype 64 Bit (Linux Mint 16)

I kept having this problem installing the 32 bit version of Linux in Linux 64 bit: pusleaudio would never show up is the sound options. To fix it, I ended up installing the i386 version of libpulse
apt-get install libpulse0:i386
It may also be worth trying to run Skype from a terminal using...
PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 skype 
If it works, try adding...
Exec=/usr/bin/env PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=30 /usr/bin/skype %U
... to the 'exec' line in the .desktop file.
