Is it possible to have separate audio settings between profiles?

Hallo. I'm wondering if this is possible. I do an art stream and a gaming stream. For my art stream I want to have a separate title, category, tags and audio settings (I have set it so that the desktop audio doesn't get carried over to the VoDs to avoid copyright strikes because I play music on stream). When I switch to my gaming stream I don't want to change all of these settings every time ( I also DO want to the desktop audio to carry over for these vods but I know that I am going to forget to change it back for my art streams). I understand you can have separate profiles but this doesn't seem to affect the audio settings. I was also thinking of having a separate Twitch account entirely for my gaming stream. My question is how can I have these two stream settings completely separate so I don't have to do a bunch of configuration every time I want to swap between the two types of streams and have different audio settings for each?

There are Profiles, and there are Scene Collections:

I don't know which does what, as I always change them both, but I do have practically a whole 'nother install of OBS when I do that. Including audio, as you need.

I even have two of them that are meant to work together as Master/Slave, that are started from a script (on Linux) as:
Bash: 
obs --disable-updater --multi --studio-mode --profile "Master" --collection "Master" --startvirtualcam > /dev/null &
obs --disable-updater --multi --studio-mode --profile "Slave" --collection "Slave" > /dev/null &
On Windows, that would be:
Code: 
start "" obs --disable-updater --multi --studio-mode --profile "Master" --collection "Master" --startvirtualcam > NUL
start "" obs --disable-updater --multi --studio-mode --profile "Slave" --collection "Slave" > NUL
in a .bat file.
