Earth To Skype, Hello??? Can't Hear Call In Skype?

  Recently I cannot hear my calls on Skype. Happened twice in different situations. My friend can't hear me in one call, and the other call was that I can't hear my friend. Luckily, I was able to fix both situations through the Skype settings itself and not reinstalling my drivers or any other ways. So here's what I did :

Click 'Options...'

Choose different devices for Speaker till both sides can hear.

Choose different devices for Microphone till both can hear each other.

Save to confirm.

1. Click 'Tools' > 'Options...'
2. Choose 'Audio Settings'
3. If you can hear but can't be heard by others, choose different device from 'Microphone' drop-down list.
4. If you can't hear others but they can hear you, choose different device from 'Speakers'
5. Adjust volume with the blue circle OR tick 'Automatically adjust microhone/speaker settings' until you get the optimal sound.
6. Remember to click 'Save'.

That's it! If you know other ways of getting round this problem, please do share your solutions in the comments.
