Hi guys, just installed OBS and when the program opens it like disables my desktop audio. If I close it my audio immediately resumes. Sometimes it will open and and the audio will continue but stutter really bad, other times if I'm playing a video on youtube it will actually freeze the video along with audio. Any ideas what I can do?

Help really appreciated!

That is an incomplete log without profiler data.
Try again with the "Last" instead of "current" log.
