Binding both Unmute and Push to Mute. Conflict??

[kaega2]

Hey everyone. I'm only asking this to be extra cautious, everything seems to be working fine.

I've decided to bind both Unmute and Push to Mute to the same key. I'm doing this because I'll start my streams with the mic muted, but when the stream starts I tend to only need to mute when coughing, etc. This way I can unmute my stream just by pushing the push to mute button and then I'm good to go.

The reason I'm making this post is because OBS is giving me a warning in options that these 2 keybinds will conflict. I don't want to assume because it appears to be working that I might not be causing new problems. Probably a stupid question

Behavior may change with OBS updates, but while it works - you can use it.
In general, when you need sequence of actions then common approach is to trigger sequence of of different key presses with some macro/script.

The feature of rising the warning just tells you that hotkey already in use and doesn't make any other checks. It excludes toggling pairs but that's all. The feature itself started from here:
