OBS monitoring mic even when all audio sources are disabled

[kisschicken]

Hello,

OBS is always monitoring my left channel (it's an XLR mic), even when all global audio sources are disabled and there are no sound devices in sources. I've found a solution but it requires me to disable my mic in Windows sound settings, then turn it back on. That fixes it until I close and reopen OBS. Has anyone run into this?

i've also run into this, i haven't found any solutions besides turning it off and on again though.

use voicemeter so you didnt must remove ans sounddevices when you didnt need them

i didnt can repuduce the problem but use voicemeter can a solution and brings you realtime monitoring

I'll try the voicemeter thing but I don't think that is related to my issue.
