Hello.
Since I got my Win7 machine, something has been bugging me A LOT: Whenever someone calls me on Skype and I answer (or vice verse), the volume of some applications (any game, firefox etc) is dimmed down to a level where it is nigh impossible to hear it.
I've been looking for the solution myself, but I just can't seem to find a solution. Anyone know whether this is something issued by Skype, because I can't seem to find any settings in Skype causing this.

I'm certainly sorry if this belongs in the Technical Support question, but I found it more sensible to place it here since it's not really a technical problem in that matter, but more of a feature adjustment.
