Sound disappeared when updating linux_base-fc4->linux_base-fc6

[Dmitry Lunts]

Thanks for quick replay, Alexander!
It seems, ALSA is used only by skype2, because I've never installed the port
linux-alsa-lib separetely. It was seemingly installed in a tupple with skype2
(this can be seen from pkg_info -R -x linux-alsa-lib, the output is:
Required by:
skype-2.0.0.72,1
 )
Can there be some conflicts?
The output of pkg_info|grep linux (all ports are up to date):
