Exclude browser audio from 'desktop audio'

[pizza144]

Can I exclude browser audio from 'desktop audio' so I can listen to something without it being streamed somehow?
So I stream my game's audio, or my music player's audio, but not the browsers?
I guess somehow seperate audio sources is what I'm asking. Thanks!

In the Browser Source's Properties, you can enable "Control audio via OBS". This will make the audio work the same way as other sources, so you can go into Edit -> Advanced Audio Properties and then set it to "Monitoring Only" so that it's not sent directly to the broadcast. You can set the monitoring device (to, say, a virtual cable) in Settings -> Audio.

I ended up using VB-Audio VAC using this tutorial:

With more VAC's I guess banana is better. But I'm doing my job for now. Only problem with VB-Audio drivers is you don't have your volume slide bar any more.

Actually after seeing your post I went back to banana. And everything I don't want streamed I route to VAC. It's also much cleaner than the single VAC method, perfect. With a small investemtent you also get some extra VAC's, even cleaner. Nice!
