NDI Source Dropping Audio After 5 Mins... Unable To Stream.

I'm having trouble with my NDI source audio in OBS. Whenever I get everything booted up I can hear the game audio for about five minutes. Then it gets choppy and eventually just goes out. There are times when it comes back but it's extremely sporadic and never stays on. I've tried everything and went up and down the settings to make sure everything was correct and still the audio drops out. I don't have this issue with any other audio that's generated in OBS. My cpu usage is low and everything else works perfectly. Please see attached Log File. This is the current log and the audio is dropped out. Any information on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated as this is the only thing keeping me from streaming. Thanks so much!

I was having the same problem with my audio. What I did to fix it was i just locked the NDI source audio volume at like -13db. This stopped mine. i noticed it was doing it when the sound would get close to the red or in the red.

Give it a try it may work for you too
