Sony Xperia S & Skype

Hi,

I'm not sure if this is an Android general problem or just my model phone, however i appear to have a problem with Skype on my Android in which, if i take a call, or browse the internet, any use of data outside of Skype, when i return to Skype, i get a message saying "Skype has stopped working and unfortunately has had to close" - Just paraphrasing, although the amount i see it i should really know it off by heart now.

What gets me is i had a blackberry before this, around two months ago, and Skype would never crash to the extent it does on this.

Anyway, I have the latest version of ICS installed.

Being an IT tech myself, i'm a bit ashamed to be having to ask this, but phones aren't exactly my field of expertise anyway, nor the Android platform.

This is a long shot but does anyone have any ideas on a fix or cause of this problem aside from perhaps Skype is lowest priority to recieve traffic to the phone (which logically, given my activities, seems likely).

Thanks in advance.
