Works fine on Gmail video chats too.  But the microphone doesn't work in Skype.  Any idea why not?  TONS of suggestions for fixing this on Google, all different, but nothing I've tried has worked.

In my experience, Skype was a 32-bit-only app, so I needed to install all the 32-bit libraries for PulseAudio to get it to work on my 64-bit system.
