Open Skype from CLI and see if it spits out any errors, if it does then post them in your reply.

Does this only happen on Cinnamon?

So it does work on Devuan using another DE? Not really sure where i am going with this just asking because ruling out incompatible GUI libraries (QT?) would be a good start. If the problem happens to be QT related it might be possible to work around it by preloading another version of it.
