Question / Help OBS Studio does not record audio from source

[jurekchg]

Although the source is selected, the program does not record any audio from source. Neither in stream nor in recording. It does however record microphone. Here's log file from my attempt to record background audio (some video in browser) https://hastebin.com/ulolibujod
Thanks in advance.

I seem to be having a similar/the same problem. OBS picks up on my microphone just fine, but doesn't register desktop audio at all. It doesn't matter if I'm using my headset or not. I've tried what feels like a million "fixes" but either my settings were already what they need to be, or the couple new things I could try still didn't work. I never used to have this problem with OBS before 21.1. Is there ANYTHING that can be done to fix this?

Original poster had an issue with the audio device either being blocked or otherwise misconfigured.

I was able to fix my problem by updating my audio drive through HP's website. It recognizes desktop audio now, which is great. But now I'm getting a black screen when trying to record a game. I can't win, lol. Guess it's back to tinkering.
