First I learned how to mute my mic on obs studio and assigned a hotkey for it, works fine. I have an audio technica mic I use for the stream and I have a AKG headset for the stream, I also have an Astro A50 headset that I would like to use with the setup I have because of the problem I am about to explain.

Second, I like to record game-play clips on Overwatch through twitch and I sometimes mute my mic(audio technica) so that you don't hear my annoying mechanical keyboard... Now when I mute my mic through obs it works as intended, no problems. In Overwatch people can hear me when I use the in-game push-to-talk even with my mic muted on OBS which still works as intended.

Third, when I stream with my mic muted though obs everything works but when I listen to my stream you can't hear my voice in-game when I push my push-to-talk which is not surprising considering I muted my mic through OBS even though people can still hear me in game, works as intended.

Next, I got the idea of adding my Astro A50's to the mix to see if I can mute my streaming mic(Audio Technica) on OBS and use my gaming mic(Astro A50's)for the in-game push-to-talk so you can still hear my voice without hearing my keyboard so I set my mic/aux in OBS to my streaming mic(Audio Technica) and I set my gaming-headset/mic(Astro A50's) to my default device in the windows sound settings so Overwatch could use it. Didn't work.

Finally, I could just set up obs to the same push to talk as the in-game hotkey but if I want to talk to my stream I'm sure you can see that could get pretty annoying. Dose all of this make sense? Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
