Bug Report Mic Not Detected Properly, Stream Constantly Turns Off

Tonight I noticed that I would start the stream, yet on twitch it would immediately go offline and never work. I did this repeatedly and it just kept shutting off.

I at first thought it was a server issue, but tried selecting multiple servers and the issue still occurred.

In any case, I soon noticed that my microphone was not responding. It was plugged in, but it had essentially frozen. I could tell this by when I would push the mute button it would not actually do anything and it would not work in mumble either.

I have had this issue several times and usually solve it by simply pulling out the usb connection to the microhpone and plugging it back in.

In any case, by resetting the microphone and restarting OBS, it all of the sudden was working again no problem. So their must be an issue between OBS having a microphone selected and the microphone being frozen or not working correctly that causes the stream to turn itself offline.

Note: OBS never said stream was off...just stopped transmitting data instead.

I do not remember exactly which log it was. Here are a few.

OBS uses audio timestamps for sync, if your audio device is broken then the stream timestamps will be broken.

That makes sense then. Might I suggest then the program does an audio device check at launch of the program so the person is aware of their issue. Just a little warning box or something of no audio device detected or not working properly. This might solve any future bug reports like mine.

Well actually there usually should be a message box when it can't connect with the mic. Hmm, weird.
