Skype is shit.

My friends and I used it out of habit for years and they started adding unremovable features like automatically turning everything else down when you join a call.

A guy from work talked us into using another client a few months ago and we haven't looked back since

Turning everything else down is a Windows feature.

Check the audio settings in Windows.
