Your best bet would be to maybe get a new soundcard..
If you've updated skype and it started then I'd downgrade, if you haven't updated then try updating and see if that helps.
I know of another person this happened too and skype was never able to give him a reason why it happened.

its happening on boath sound cards so it can't be the sound card something else is making it do it.

Are they the same type of sound card like from the same company or are they different.
If they are different, then it's probably something to do with your computer.
