This may seem like a weird post, but I want to hear keyboard and mouse sounds. Whenever I use the recording software on OBS and look over the recording in my files the keyboard and mouse sounds aren’t there, but when I type or click my mouse the mic section bar goes up. I really want this to work because i’m trying to record a a keyboard and mouse sounds video for my youtube.
OBS not picking up keyboard and mouse sounds

Is that all that's in that mic? Are your videos supposed to be silent except for that ambient noise?
It's far more common for people to say that their voice isn't there, in which case we'd tell you to check the Audio Monitoring and Tracks for that mic:
and the Audio Track selection on the Output->Recording tab:
But since you say something else, the assumption is that all of that is correct, your voice does work, and there's some kind of Filter involved:
I don't think a Noise Suppressor would do it, since that sort of thing is designed to remove constant sounds like electronic hiss, fans, etc.
A Noise Gate probably *would* cut out a keyboard and mouse, if they happened in isolation. You'd still hear them under your voice, but you'd have to listen for them. But since you *want* to hear them, I doubt you're using one. If you are, take it off.
