Bug Report Cannot initialize desktop audio sound [Fixed]

The first time I stream something it works great. I can get my webcam to work, I can get the game to record, and I can get the sound I hear to be what the audience hears, too. However, Once I close the software and reopen it, I get a pop up menu that says "Cannot initialize desktop audio sound" and closes the program. The only way I can get desktop audio to initialize again is by deleting all temp files, app data, and uninstall the program. Then, if I close it again I run into the same problem. Is there anyway for me to be able to close and reopen the program freely without my desktop audio failing to initialize? Here is what the log file says. I'm very new to this so I'm not sure what all of this means.
Thank you so much for helping.

******EDIT: Thank you so much, Jim! It was a problem with my headphones. By disabling Kraken 7.1 at startup by going to msconfig and then restarting my computer I was able to fix the problem.********
