Question / Help *FIXED ~ IMPORTANT FOR MSI USERS* Desktop Audio not working in OBS Studio

[CrafterCentury]

Hello, so for the past week and a half to two weeks, I have not been able to get my desktop audio to work in OBS. I looked at the log file and it mentioned "[WASAPISource::TryInitialize]:[Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)] Failed to get initialize audio client: 88890008". It won't work on either the 32 or 64 bits of x split, I don't have any other speakers, and anything I've looked at online failed to help. Is anyone able to help me?

Playback Devices: http://prntscr.com/duwttm
Headphones: Hyper X Cloud (plugged in through the audio and mic plugs [dunno if this matters at all])

Update Realtek HD Audio drivers

You are running OBS on your integrated GPU.
Use NVIDIA control panel and run OBS on your GTX 950M

Website doesn't seem to work. Is it offline or is there another way I can update it?

*SOLUTION* So after looking more and more online, turns out a program that comes with MSI computers called Nahimic when on before launching OBS prevents desktop audio to be used in OBS, yet it is fine to use after obs has launched. Curse you pre installed programs!!!

Thanks for all the help ebrito.
