Help! Remuxing loses my audio tracks!

So, at first I thought that maybe my settings weren't right and that my audio wasn't recording at all. I just tried recording another video so I can have my game audio and my mic audio on separate tracks, I record as an MKV file type, and then I remux into an mp4 so I can use it with my Adobe Premiere program. When I playback the MKV I can hear everything just fine, but once I remux the file as mp4 the audio disappears.

The weirdest part is that when I record my videos using the Settings -> Output -> "simple" Instead of Settings -> Output -> "advanced" and remux from mkv to mp4 everything works fine

Here is my last log file if it helps. (the test video was very short)

When you are recording with Simple, it uses h264 for video and AAC for audio. For Advanced you are the Custom Output (FFmpeg) type. You may not have an Audio Encoder at all or one that is not compatible with Premiere. It all depends on those settings. You can change the Type to Standard for more manageable advanced video settings.

Simple mode record only stereo on left and right channel.
Advance record on separate channels, mp4 formats does not support more channels like 2 (only stereo).
Use better video editor like Resolve Davinci and import mkv direct.

If you need remux mkv to mp4, must manual mux all audio channel to one.

Second solution is correct setting e.g. on first channel all sound (game and microphone), on 2. only game, on 3. microphone. Now you have 3 channel.

I don't want to hijack thread, but please clarify. Resolve 16/17 won't open MKV files. I believe you can change the container, please explain what you mean 'import direct'
'import direct' - without remux.
Is true Resolve won't open MKV, but i use many diffrect video editor and i check Magix Video Pro X open MKV file (propably Magix Movie Edit Pro).
