I believe each voip client uses a specific port.
So you can have multiple voip apps, listenning
for packets on different ports.
Also, since pulseaudio allows multiple audio clients,
you will have quiet an orchestra of sound when
answering mutiple incoming voip calls and asnwer
all of them at the same time (roughly speaking) :)
Of course, you will really need CPU bandwidth for
such an orchestra :)
