Question / Help No Program Audio Monitoring in OBS?

[RobLive!]

I've got egg on my face after a recent stream had no audio. All of the sources were healthy but the output was muted (the audio monitoring selector was confusing), is there a way to show my live (Program) audio on the mixer? This is a huge issue for me. I need to know at a glance that my audio is alive and well and the output being routed to Program.

Thanks,

R

Really no one cares about audio? :)

The mixer actually is showing your Program audio. It doesn't monitor levels of audio sources (input or output) that aren't currently being broadcast to your audience (which can be confusing if you're working in Studio mode and trying to set up audio from the Preview window!).

It doesn't bus everything together into a single Master Audio Meter (which would be nifty!).

In other words, if your mixer meters indicate that your audio input and audio output capture sources are generating signals, but your audience can't hear anything, something funky is going on.
