Question / Help Sound dropping out on Capture Device

Using a GV-USB2 and mostly playing NES on an everdrive. Everything starts up fine, but at some point I always lose audio. I clipped the last occurence and as you can see, it happens after I spend a little time in the everdrive menu (which has no audio): https://clips.twitch.tv/LaconicAlluringClipsmomBrokeBack

The weird part is that the levels in the mixer are still bouncing around like normal and I can hear the game audio if I turn the monitor on. I've tried messing with the settings, reinstalling OBS studio. I also tried the 32bit version (bc someone told me the GV-USB2 had issues with the 64 bit version). I'm out of ideas. I've included all the settings I could think that would matter. Any ideas would be appreciated.

Also, I did notice in the logs that there are these two lines... will give disabling buffering a try, but in the meanwhile, any ideas would be appreciated:

00:02:40.449: Max audio buffering reached!
00:02:40.449: adding 975 milliseconds of audio buffering, total audio buffering is now 1044 milliseconds

So I tried another USB port (a USB3.0 port) and also tried disabling buffering on the source itself. Same thing happened and I see the same error in the logs. One other interesting workaround I found DOES work is If I enable monitoring on that audio source and then unmute my desktop audio as an audio source, you can hear the capture audio... obviously not ideal and I'll get a bunch of audio I don't want, but it does work.
