Hey, I have watched several videos on YT and read through several forums but cannot seem to get monitoring to work. The two things I want to be able to hear in my headset are my stinger transition and my bass guitar (when I plug it in.)

Mixer: Presonus Audio USB 96 (labeled hanging mic as it also is used for another purpose)

I have monitor and output on and for the Listen to this device is turned off.

OBS outputs audio set to monitoring to the audio device you configured in Settings->Audio->Advanced->Monitoring Device. Check this setting. Make sure you're not creating a feedback loop - in this case OBS doesn't output anything for monitoring.

I have the same issue and have checked the same things. When streaming to a Zoom, all my friends can hear what I'm playing but I can't. Sometimes it's too loud. Any updates on this issue?

if youre still looking for the fix i figured it out, go to your sound devices and in playback enable the option for other apps to take exclusive control of your audio device
