Skype?

Anyone out there using Skype with FreeBSD? I have installed it on my FreeBSD system after having used it on other platforms, but I can't get it to recognize the right sound device. Skype defaults to /dev/dsp, which doesn't work at all. But the program won't let me input what I believe to be the correct sound device: /dev/dspW0.
