Every time I try to preview a stream on League of Legends I get an error saying "Error: Cannot initialize desktop audio sound"
The logs say

Error: Cannot initialize desktop audio sound, more info in the log file.
===================================================================================================

I have a Razer Kraken 7.1 (Uses a USB instead of a regular audio jack)(Razer driver "Synapse 2.0" also installed) and Real tech HD Audio installed on my PC. Below is a screenshot of what I see when trying to choose which device to use.

So what can I do to fix this error?

NVM. I think I found out why this is happening. I was using a 32 bit version of the program. Using the 64 bit version fixed the error lol.
