Bug Report OBS 20.0.1 x64 Not Recording Desktop Audio (FIXED!)

[Night Thastus]

Not sure if it's me or OBS.

Here's the log: https://gist.github.com/e159ee2c519968a3d1586a213d228d83

I'm just not getting desktop audio. That's the long and the short of it. I'm not very familiar with the software, so maybe it's me.

Thanks for any help!

EDIT: These are set to be .mkv files, which I'm playing back through VLC player. (Latest version)
EDIT: No audio when playing back through windows media player either.

EDIT: FIXED!

I found a fix. I created a new scene collection. In the new one, the audio works fine once I changed it from default to my speakers.

I just deleted the old one. My previous scene was made I think back in 0.16 or earlier. I think some update or another just broke it somehow.

18:38:51.794: WASAPI: Device 'Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)' initialized
18:38:51.794: [WASAPISource::WASAPISource] Device 'default' not found. Waiting for device

I see this in your log. Verify you have the correct audio devices selected for capture in Settings -> Audio in OBS.

Weird. I think I have it set right. When I set it to "Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)" the audio bar in OBS clearly shows when I have audio (like music) playing in the background.

But for thoroughness, here's what my audio settings look like: https://imgur.com/a/xoYbO

Why do you have the audio source added twice? If it's selected in Settings -> Audio, you don't need to add it as a source in your scene. That might be the conflict here.

I tried removing it from the scene, but that didn't help. Still no audio.

Updated thread with the fix I found. Fenrir found me a solution in chat. I posted what I did in the OP.
