Skype notifications don't seem to work

hi,

i have Skype installed, and it is configured to notify for “new instant messages”: i have checked “notification sound”, “notification light” and “notification vibrations”. “Notifications” are (of course…) set to ON. however, it doesn’t do any of the three… i have tried to turn notifications OFF and ON again, to no avail… is this a known issue, or is there something wrong with my setup?

FP1U, updated to Cherry 1.6. Skype is up-to-date.

Don’t use skype myself, but noticed this thread elsewhere:

Thread started a few months ago but last postings are recent, so maybe still relevant. If so, downgrading to a previous version of skype might be a (temporary) solution?

I have moved this to the Fairphone Help! category.
