Looks very similar to bug https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121069, but it doesn't give any sort of resolution or workaround for this bug
This is not similar to https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=121069 . You can try the upstream forums at www.skype.com If you get some extra info and this is Gentoo related please re-open.
