Obs is behaving strangely. problem: if i open Obs then the game I wish to record Obs disables all desktop audio, game sound does not work, desktop audio doesn't work, zero sound works but obs can record my microphone. now if open the game first then Obs, game sounds, and an other audio coming through the desktop works but obs wont record my microphone then. been trying to solve this but can not find a solution. here is the log files from situation 2

In case you're using a Bluetooth headset: as soon as OBS starts, it activates all audio devices it has configured. In this moment, Bluetooth headsets switch from music audio to communication audio mode and switch the Windows default audio devices to the new Bluetooth communication audio devices.

Either remove the mic from any OBS configuration (this will prevent the switch in the first place) or go into the Windows audio configuration and re-assign the default audio devices while the mic is active (this will prevent the change of the default devices as soon as the mic is activated).
