Question / Help I hear myself on startup OBS

[Devoon]

Hello everyone.

I have the following issue, when i start OBS i can hear myself typing, breathing, speaking etc etc.
In windows settings listen to this device is unchecked.
In OBS Monitor is off in the mixer for my mic and my desktop audio.
And i'm not watching my stream, heck i'm not even online.

Found 3 or 4 posts with this same error/issue and did not helped me out.
Here is my log.

I use a G35 headset, and Blue yeti microphone.
If you need pc specs or anything else let me know.

Thanks in advance,
Dev.

Edit:
06:13:12.873: Required module function 'obs_module_load' in module '../../obs-plugins/64bit/chrome_elf.dll' not found, loading of module failed
06:13:12.873: [CoreAudio encoder]: CoreAudio AAC encoder not installed on the system or couldn't be loaded

Could this be something?

Input sources can come from three audio devices:
- Your G35 mic
- Your Yeti mic
- Your webcam mic

Assuming your voice is to be only picked up by the Yeti:
- Your webcam mic should be muted in OBS mixer and the volume turned to the far left on the slider. The Monitor setting should be Monitor Only (mute output) so that no sound is recorded to the stream or recorded.
- Your G35 mic should be the same as your webcam. Muted in OBS mixer, volume off, and Monitor Only (mute output). In Windows Sound, the mic should be disabled.
- Your Yeti should be Monitor and Output. It should also be the default recording device in Windows sound.

For my setup, I disable all audio in OBS Studio audio settings (desktop 1 and 2, mic/aux 1, 2, 3). I do this because it is not clear exactly what desktop audio flows into the OBS. There seems to be default behavior going on and I'm not going to pour through the source code to find out what that is. I'd rather shut it all off and control the audio through the sources themselves (i.e. specify audio input sources and audio output sources).

Thank you for your reply, i've done everything exactly as you described, can make screenshots if needed.
I still hear everything with OBS opened, is this normal or ?

So what i did next was turn the volume down from Aux/mic 1,2.3 and Desktop audio 1,2 to zero (0)
Clicked every speaker icon (turned red now)
Now everything should be muted i guess?
But i still clearly hear myself.

Yeti is default (cam and G35 are disabled in windows.

Monitoring is listening to audio prior to it being sent to the audio output channel for final processing. You are going to hear yourself with your headphones on. Any audio device set to Monitor Only or Monitor Only (mute output) is going to be passed through the monitoring device set in Settings | Advanced | Monitor Audio Device.

The monitoring device should be set to be your headphones or the default which is related to the default playback device in Windows sound. I recommend setting it to a specific audio device.

if you don't want to hear yourself in your monitoring headphones, then set the Yeti to Monitor Off. That will not let anything going through the Yeti flow to your ears. It will however be captured.

Hi
Don`t know if you already solved your problem but I also had it and just found a way to fix it (at least worked for me).

Just went to the webcam Properties and changed the Audio Output Mode to Capture audio only.

Hope it works ;)
