When I share my screen it works but when I share my system sounds the person cannot hear them? Please help solve this mystery!

I tried to shut down Skype. I tried calling them again. I tried sharing sounds first and then sharing screens. I tried the latter but vice-versa. I went to my sound settings and tried different things but nothing is working. It's very strange because I recall at one time it was working on my computer using the same headset and everything. So, I know for a fact that it has worked with my current hardware and I have done it before but it doesn't seem to be consistent. It appears to always work sporadically. Please help.
