Try to download and install the latest version from skypes homepage. Just download and double click the .deb file. Then follow the instructions. You may need to remove the old skype version with sudo apt-get purge skype

I think you hit bug #1372846. I see that you solved the problem by installing directly from the Skype website. Another solution (workaround) would probably have been:

sudo apt-get install skype skype-bin
