Question / Help Echoing Begins in Middle of Stream

I started my stream but after a couple of hours viewers were mentioning an echo. I just watched the broadcast, and an echo does indeed build during my stream: http://www.twitch.tv/drunkerella/v/26079830. It happens first at the 47:23 mark, then again at 1:48:17 to noticeable effect (and after what looks like a lag spike). At this time viewers told me to close my twitch dashboard, which I did but no improvement.

The start of my stream has perfect audio and I did not mess with any settings mid-game so I don't know how this started up. I've included a part of the logfile below that looks like it might be responsible for the first echo. I'll also attach the whole log file but it's kind of a mess as I did not close OBS after I had finished a previous stream & some testing. The log info I am concerned about is for the stream that starts at 2015-11-16 @ 14:03:33 (near bottom of log)

Please if anyone could give me tips on how to prevent the echo, or what to do if it happens again in my next stream. Explain it to me like I'm five as I'm brand new to OBS and streaming :)

Code:
14:03:33: =====Stream Start: 2015-11-16, 
14:51:06: Audio timestamp for device 'Microphone (Logitech USB Microphone)' was behind target timestamp by 80

i've watched the first mark of the vod and game sound itself isnt echoing it is only your mic.

for the second mark after the lagg the delay between the echo got worse.

have you made sure that your webcam mic is disabled in the device manager? or your build in laptop mic in general.


for the lagg itself i'd call it just a hiccup which can happen from time to time on mobile cpus when they are under such load for a long time.
