Question / Help OBS Mutes Audio When Recording

Hey guys. I've been having a problem with OBS lately. When using Game Capture, it will at random mute my headset and also stop recording audio from both the game and my mic. The only way to fix that I've found it is to stop recording, tab out of the game to OBS, unplug my headset and plug it back in, and reset all of my audio settings as for some reason they get forced back to default. The headset is a pair of Razer Megalodons. For some reason I don't have a log file from the most recent time this has happened but here is the most recent one I have: https://gist.github.com/b20ca5d5fddcaa0328fe
Thank you in advance for whatever help you can give.

Sounds like your audio driver is dynamically switching your audio
 
I disabled every audio device on my computer that wasn't my headphones or the microphone on them. Hopefully the driver won't have anything to switch to now. Are there any other steps I can take to keep that from happening? It looks like my headphones are using the default Windows audio driver; should I try to force the headphones to use the one Razer provides?
