Odd. I get pretty much the same as you neither of us have
libasound2-plugins:i386 but the new skype insists on having it.

stripes at debian:~$ dpkg -l|grep -iP 'skype|libasound'
ii  libasound2:amd64
1.0.27.2-3                           amd64        shared library for ALSA
applications
ii  libasound2:i386
1.0.27.2-3                           i386         shared library for ALSA
applications
ii  libasound2-data
1.0.27.2-3                           all          Configuration files and
profiles for ALSA drivers
ii  libasound2-plugins:amd64
1.0.27-2+b1                          amd64        ALSA library additional
plugins
ii  skype
4.2.0.13-1                           i386         Wherever you are,
wherever they are
