Hello there, I have the problem that my game sound is in front of the gameplay, or maybe my gameplay is delayed? Im not sure what it is. When i play Fortnite my sniper shot sound is in front of the gameplay if that makes sense..

What am is using:
Xxbox one
Elgato HD (the older one)
OBS studio
Astro a40 + mixamp pro
Webcam Logitech c920

Everything runs smooth on stream and my webcam is almost in sync with my voice (need to fine tune that but thats no problem). I have searched and found that you can delay the gameplay but cannot find how to delay the game-sound.

xbox one -> optical out ->mixamp pro->stream out 3.5mm-> line-in on pc (for the party chat i guess)
xbox one -> optical out ->mixamp pro-> usb to pc (is this for game audio?)

in OBS I use line-in for my voice and party chat and it works fine.
I tried to -2000 or more in the audio settings on SyncOffset (ms) for the elgato, thougth that might delay the game sound but it doesnt.

When I shoot and hit, the sync between gameplay and party chat and my own voice are on time, so it only looks like my game-sound is bugged i guess.

Any idea's? :) thank you in advance and could give more info, thats no problem.

EDIT: my xbox one is connected with hdmi out and in the elgato settings it uses HDMI audio with analog audio
EDIT: sound is almost fixed.. i deleted the analog audio and now its in sync but people cant hear party chat
