Hi healthybrain, welcome to the HP Forums.
I am not certain of the sound options provided by Skype specifically. Do other sounds perform the sound way, through the headphones and speakers? Are you using 3.5mm headphones or USB headphones?
Try to restore the original audio drivers (IDT HD Audio), using this method: Using Recovery Manager to Restore Software and Drivers (Windows 8)
After that, download and install the updated audio drivers here: IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver
I hope this helps. Let me know the results.
