Bug Report OBS makes my audio cut out after recording gameplay for a while

I have a blue yeti microphone and I heard they are known to be glitchy but I'd like to make sure it isn't a problem with my computer or software before I do anything about the microphone. When I record with obs it is fine at first but after a little bit it just shoots out my audio and my mouse for a bit until I unplug the mic and plug it back in. https://obsproject.com/logs/760IDE46gyJOEfE-

00:40:56.189: ==== Recording Start ===============================================
00:40:56.189: [ffmpeg muxer: 'adv_file_output'] Writing file 'C:/Users/Allanjay/Videos/2019-06-18 00-40-54.mp4'...

00:44:11.489:
00:47:34.484: Device 'Speakers (Yeti Stereo Microphone)' invalidated. Retrying

Is the timestamp above when you unplug the Yeti, or when sound fails before unplugging?

The only error I see prior to that is this:

00:40:55.044: [jim-nvenc: 'recording_h264'] init_encoder: nvEncGetEncodePresetConfig failed: 15 (NV_ENC_ERR_INVALID_VERSION)

There is a thread on that error here:

Well, Windows is out of date... not sure that's relevant.

00:35:52.233: Windows Version: 10.0 Build 17134 (revision: 829; 64-bit)

00:35:55.691: - scene 'games':
00:35:55.691: - source: 'Game Capture 2' (game_capture)
00:35:55.691: - source: 'Game Capture' (game_capture)
00:35:55.691: - source: 'Game Capture 3' (game_capture)


That's not a good practice-- you'd be better off with a single game capture per scene. Multiples can cause performance issues.

I think the only other suggestion I could make would be to set up Voicemeeter on the machine between your audio devices and OBS, and then see if the failure still occurs.

Do any other devices drop out, or just the microphone?

Does the microphone drop out this way when used with any other application, or just with OBS?

If you create a fresh profile/scene collection and add your mic as the only source, does it also drop out?

Does it happen randomly or at a regular interval?
