Question / Help OBS Elgato4k60 pro no sound headsets

[Beiron]

Hi, I wanted to ask a question about OBS.
I have the capture of elgato 4k60pro and I capture the video and audio well to make direct, the problem is that I from the headphones that I have connected to the PC I do not hear the audio of the console.
How do I listen to the game's audio from OBS? Thank you

2 ways that I know

You have to change the audio output of the source of the video capture(elgato capture)
Right-Click the source > Properties
Go down at the bottom you will see: Audio Output Mode
Default is: Capture Audio Only
Change it to either: Output Desktop audio (DirectSound) or (WaveOut)

That should bring the audio for you to listen, only issue this captured audio would be in Desktop Audio(as in all PC sounds/music is all together controlled in that volume)

--------

There is another way... leave it at default(as in not doing the above method) - then on the Mixer tab on OBS on the elgato device source
Click the Cog Wheel or Right-Click > Advanced Audio Properties
On the elgato Device Source > Audio Monitoring
Default: Monitor Off
Change that option and give it a few tests, if you can't hear it right away after being enabled exit OBS and open it again

I'd suggest doing a few local recordings so you can test if there are any audio or volume issues using any of these
