So I finally have my set up ready and I want to start streaming through OBS on Twitch. The problem is that my microphone (Blue snowball) works perfectly fine but my Desktop Audio from my Razer Kraken 7.1 Chroma is really low.

I've tried boosting the the desktop audio by 2 heck even 20 and it does nothing but boost the audio by a bit.

No clue if this will help but I've been researching and I've noticed a lot of people have this problem and what we all have in common is a USB headset. No clue if that means anything but I would really love some help with this.

I've already tried putting all my audio settings in my windows volume mixer to 100% but the problem with that is #1 the changes nothing and #2 it is waaaaaaaaay to loud and I will go deaf if I keep it at 100% for 2 seconds.

I've also edited my communications settings so that when I use my microphone audio wont be cut by 50% or 80%.

One thing I've noticed is that if I activate my Digital audio in my playback device the green bar that moves up and down on the mixer when sound is being played goes up and down higher compared to my USB Headset. Now of course I can't hear anything if enable Realtech Digital Output through my USB headset but I guess that's a clue to what's going on.

I would really love some help!! I'm really stumped.

I'm also having this problem with a Logitech G633 Chroma, it appears to just be a USB headset thing with windows. Windows USB drivers are bugging out and mess with the volume, I use equalizer APO to fix this but it makes desktop audio really quiet for OBS.
