Ok, got Skype with microphone working. 

Had to edit the file /compat/linux/etc/alsa/pcm/pcm-oss.conf

pcm.oss2 {
	...
	device /dev/dsp2
	...
		Description " ... Webcam"
}

ctl.oss2 {
	...
	device /dev/mixer2
	...
		Description " ... Webcam"
}

... added to the file. So essentially adding a second copy of the text
in there with a second device number; in my case, I chose 2 because
that's what dmesg | grep uaudio showed the camera had been attached to. 

Hope that makes sense???
