Uploaded, and I am using 13.1
Ive used the Windows 10 player, and Media Player, I even used different recordings to make sure it was not the players to confirm that was not the issue, and indeed it is not the issue.

Sound works with OBS Beta, xSplit, Normal camera, and 3 different movies. Its not my players.
Recording in OBS Beta is a super lag behind, xsplit is horrible quality as is my normal camera software, sound wise.

No, nor will I.
If xSplit works fine in Windows 10 player, Windows Camera works fine in windows player, Handycam videos run fine, movies, and the other version of obs, then I do not care to download VLC.

Then you are ignoring the fact that windows media player has a FIFTEEN YEAR HISTORY of having BAD media support.
If you're not going to even try, don't waste our time, but I'm pretty sure that if you actually bothered to try, VLC would prove me right.
At this point, you're proving me right by refusing to try.

I would suggest trying VLC. Just because it works with XSplit, or Windows camera or Handycam, doesn't excuse the fact that Windows Media players don't support the audio codec used by OBS.
Install it and give it a shot.

media player won't playback audio with obs videos, simple as that XD. just use VLC
Same issue happened to me, however, when I was on W7 Ult., everything worked with the standard Windows Media Player... Now that I'm on W10 Pro, I was getting a problem with the player not playing audio, even thought it was the MIC being a little bi*** lol... but thanks for the information and I have the problem fixed. Thanks Harold for hinting at VLC player.
Thank you so much for explaining why the audio was not working. I DLed VLC and it works now! I was going crazy thinking it was just some audio setting that I had gotten wrong D:

Well, the OBS has a complex audio encoder with has default settings that doesn't work in a lot of softwares, so guys here keep sayin that the Sony Vegas has a problem, Media Player has a problem, Houston has a problem, but seems that they can't figure why.
First follow these instruction (Change OBS output audio encoder), then, double check OBS output audio device.
On OBS Main screen > Settings > Audio > Output Device for Desktop (or something like this) and chance to the one where currently is hearding your sound (Speakers / Headset etc...)
Then you're done! Good Job!

I can tell you exactly why.
Vegas is far too strict in what it accepts for the kind of program it is.
Microsoft can't code media codecs worth a damn (the default encoder used in Studio on windows 8 and 10 was written by microsoft (mediafoundation) and windows media player can't play it. Figure that one out)
