Question / Help OBS Losing Desktop Audio

Hey, I'm at my wit's end with this problem. I've searched high and low and haven't found anything like it, nor have I seen a solution. My problem is that if I start streaming or recording, OBS picks up the desktop audio fine. Let's say I'm streaming a game, and I decide to play something else. I close the game, and suddenly OBS stops registering the desktop audio entirely. It doesn't matter what game it is (or what game I open next), but once I close it, the desktop audio is gone until I restart OBS. All of my drivers are up to date and I do have exclusive mode turned off for devices. I've attached a log file below in which I start up a game while recording, let it run for a few seconds (during which time I can clearly see OBS detecting audio), close it, then open it up again a few seconds later (with no audio being recorded from it). This audio problem carries over to the actual recordings/streams as well. Microphone audio is unaffected. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
