Question / Help Microphone keeps muting in ONLY obs, no other programs..

My microphone seemingly randomly stops working when I am streaming. All I do to 'fix' the issue is tab out, and look at obs, as soon as I do the mic starts to work again (I don't toggle mute or anything like that.) the ONLY assigned hotkeys I have in obs are for Push to talk, so I have no clue what would cause it to mute my mic entirely like that.

I have tried to go into settings, my mic IS set to my default etc.. I have no logs since I don't think it shows as an actual error but if it's needed I can get that too. Please if anyone has had a similar issue and has fixed it or knows the solution let me know!

Joined to say I am having this issue as well. No errors, mic just randomly mutes while I'm talking. As a streamer it's quite frustrating. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am having the exact same problem when Streaming only. If appears to happen when I login to the Facebook Live stream page. As far as I can tell none of the Audio settings have changed. The only way I have been able to fix this issue is to do a factory reset on the computer since it is dedicated to our Churches Video system only I have done it twice now as to keep being able to live stream our services but there has to be a better option than this... I was thinking that FB was making some sort of changes to my settings when I logged in but I wish I could get a fix to this soon!!
