Question / Help Microphone problem

[Mickroz]

Hi all,

I got this problem where i cannot get the audio from my mic in Mumble, i have to or use no PTT, or use PTT, which both are not really what i want.
I fixed most of my problems using VAC, but this i cannot get my head around.

Here is my setup:
Soundblaster X-Fi Fatal1ty
Sennheiser PC 155 USB
VAC Line 1
VAC Line 2

I setup mumble:
Audio input -> Sennheiser Microphone, output -> VAC Line 1
Transmit -> Voice Activity

I setup 3 audio repeaters, namely:
"What you hear" X-Fi -> VAC Line 2 (game audio)
VAC Line 1 -> VAC Line 2 (Mumble audio)
VAC Line 1 -> Sennheiser Headphone (Mumble audio)

Then my audio settings in OBS:
Desktop Audio Device: VAC Line 2 (Game and Mumble audio)
Mic/Aux Audio Device: Sennheiser Microphone

Now this works fine, i get game and mumble audio in my stream, but if i leave PTT unchecked, my mic is always open, and you can hear background noises and ingame audio coming from my speakers.
if i check PTT, i sometimes forget to push the button and people can't here what i say in my stream.

I have been googleing and watching youtube movies about VAC and OBS, but nothing about how to do this :(
Is there anyone who have a idea on how to get this done?

It works as intended, I'd say.
If you don't want to transmit speaker audio through your microphone you need to either turn down the volume or use headphones, which is what the majority of streamers do.

the volume isn't that loud, its just anoying, I have a headset, but use it to hear my clanmates when we are gaming.
I just found a post somewhere, its for teamspeak though, but it says running another instance of mumble, with another account, and use that for streaming.
havent tried it yet, not at home now.
