The same thing happened to me as well. There is a simple workaround, which consists in completely deleting your Skype account and recreating one. The procedure goes as follows:

- Open an X terminal
- Type the following command: rm -rf .Skype
- Exit the X terminal
- Go to Settings, and recreate a Skype account.

Hope this helps.

tried it with switching to another account.

logging into another account
and then switching back to the
"non-working" one helped.

I had the same problem, your suggestion didn't help me:
It seems built in Skype has problems to acces .Skype folder due to inadequate permission in new PR 1.2 firmware.
I solved it this way:
- Open an X terminal
- sudo gainroot (you need to have installed root acces]
- rm -rf .Skype
- mkdir .Skype
-chmod 777 .Skype (probably its not necessary to allow everything, but this works for sure)
