I want to start by saying that I am not great with a lot of things related to computers, so this could be something really simple I am missing.
I am trying to record the audio from my desktop and record with my microphone at the same time. I do not have a microphone so I am using the one that is built into the computer. The problem is that the desktop audio also plays quietly through the Mic/Aux on the mixer. I have confirmed it is being picked up by Mic/Aux because I had the audio muted and played a video on my computer with only Mic/Aux unmuted in OBS. My computer volume was also muted so no sound was coming out of my speakers or headphones when I recorded the video, but it still played the audio in the video. I can't hear it all the time, but there are times when it is louder and it can sometimes be heard with the desktop audio and sounds distorted.
Here is the youtube video I was recording without recording desktop audio while my sound was muted. You can hear the audio a little the whole time, especially at about 12 seconds when a louder noise plays in the video, even though the only sound should be coming through the mic. Sorry about the fan noise btw.

Also, I know my computer isn't great to use for OBS, but I haven't had any issues with recording or streaming besides this.
I would appreciate it if anybody could help! Let me know if you need any more information.
