Just installed "Dolby Axon" to use as voice communication program while i stream.

but the problem is that it seems like Obs is not picking up the sound for me.

From my PC there is only one audio cable that goes out to my Stereo and I have plugged in my headphones into that.
When i go into "Dolby Axon" and "Audio Controls" and press "Test Output" then i hear the test voice, but the viewers cant hear anything, also the audio indicates in OBS do not react to the tests either, but i can clearly hear them in the headphones. Also spoken to people, who I hear in the program, but the viewers cant hear them.

I have used TeamSpeak 3 earlier, without any problems, and also posting settings for that if anyone wants to compare.

If you have GX (or is it XG?) mode in your xonar settings enable it, disable it. That's the only thing I could think of causing things to bypass OBS like that. You see, the API OBS uses to record your desktop sound takes it from the windows mixer, so if the program in question is bypassing the mixer then OBS can't capture it. This can also happen with OpenAL applications because they bypass the mixer. This technically isn't a bug with OBS itself.

There is an option however to potentially still capture it, by making OBS use the "What you hear" or "Stereo mix" output options. Do you have either of those for the mic option for example? If you do I can make you a version that uses it for the desktop option instead as well, and put it in future versions.

I looked around after GX Mode, it was enabled, once disabled, Worked perfectly, Big Thx.
