Skype bypassing headphones

Skype bypassing headphones.

Skype sound notifications often bypass the headphones and cause sound to come through my speakers.  I am in a quite environment (Library) and can't use skype if it persists doing so.

Is there a way of preventing Skype sending sounds to the speakers whilst still sending sounds to the headphones?

As a workaround, you could "Mute all sounds" (in Options | Sounds).

Also, in Options | Audio settings, the Ringing section is set to "Ring on all devices" by default. If you set this to "Use selected speaker", I think this will achieve what you're after.
