Using Skype for Business Online I'm unable to make/receive (Skype audio) calls from my work computer, when the call is answered it just shows 'connecting call.' For about 10 seconds and then call ends. To check that your sound and microphone are working properly in Skype, you can make a test call to our friendly assistant Echo. She will prompt you to record a message, and then play it back for you – so you’ll know right away if your sound is working. Search for the Echo / Sound Test Service.
