OBS 32.2.0 Problems

1) There's no longer the option to Monitor Only (Mute Output) and for some reason muting/unmuting a capture card doesn't do anything anymore if you set it to Monitor On.

2) The Region of Interest plugin no longer loads.

Any solution for these?
 
For a bit more detail, now muting a capture card does nothing because it still monitors. It only works if you mute AND turn off monitoring. Sometimes I'll want to mute the capture card and play music, sometimes I'll want to mute Desktop Audio but still hear the capture card to know when a copyright song finishes playing. Please re-add this option.
 
Some plugins normally needs to be updated to work with new OBS versions. Never update unless you already checked compatibility of the plugins you're using.

Try just reinstalling the previous version without uninstall.
Anyway, instead of setting monitor only in the advanced audio settings you do it directly on the mixer. So if you want to monitor only, you click on mute and monitor icons.
If you want to monitor and hear the sound in stream, unmute and monitor.

In the image you can see sound on and monitor off, except on the third one which is monitor only and the fourth one is both on.

I installed the previous version over it and see now what the problem is. The Stream Deck dial toggle mute action toggles the monitoring in the previous version, whereas it toggles the mute on the new version. So that's where the problem is. Hopefully Elgato update it so that I can keep it muted and toggle the monitoring.

Thanks for your help. Relieved that I was at least able to reinstall the old version over the new one.
