Summary:
Looking to with OBS stream audio only, with no extra data overhead (extra bandwidth) for video. Example stream at just 64Kbps AAC from a single audio source (no video component). A single audio source is fine with this inquiry though if able to switch sources, like you can obviously with video sources, that is great as well.

Current Difficulty with Audio Only:
With OBS currently version 19.0.3 you must set at least 50Kbps of video overhead. Is it possible with OBS to remove the video component entirely and just stream audio without the extra video overhead? Thank you!

Reasoning:
Use OBS currently for video streaming, no issue at all, however occasionally I'll have just audio content and for efficiency would prefer to not have 140+Kbps leaving OBS for streaming when, if audio only were possible, could use just 64Kbps of bandwidth.
