Hi,
Problem:
I am here to refresh the theme of the "failed to connect to the server" when you try to stream ( at least on Facebook, Twitch or Youtube ).
Context:
Operative System
Interface Configuration
Routing table
DNS server
Tests
Of course, I tried to go under Settings -> Advanced Settings -> Bind to IP
I tried every permutation, and the result was the same.
Solution
I have to disable the IPv6 and the dual stack. It is a bit hard for newbie and intermediate, so prepare yourself ...
1. Configure your Router to bind the DHCP from lease the IPs from a certain range 192.168.10.50/24, excluding the 192.168.10.23/24 that was mine
2. Configure static IP address on your PC, in Debian
Debian WIki here
3. Add manually the DNS to your configuration
Exclude in any way the DNS of your Internet provider especially if they are using a Windows DNS Server.

5. Troubleshooting ( configuration validation )
5.1 Ping google.com. If it works, than IT WORKS !
5.2 Refresh the routing table typing `route` command ( can wait a bit of time )
5.3 Ping your DNS IP. If it works repeat the test to ping google.com, than IT WORKS! otherwise or the default route is not configured or your router doesn't forward connections from IP outside the DHCP range
5.4 Open OBS and restore the selection of the Bind by IP to "Default"
Now should works.
If it doesn't you have to resolve the problem at connection layer and not on the software layer.
I hope to be helpful !
For the OBS-Developer:
1. Add a new option on the layout to say "Default IPv4" or "Default IPv6"
2. If point 1 is not possible, you have to resolve the issue on the code, realizing a network checker and exclude one stack per time. Unfortunately I don't know too much the C or C++ projects to show you where you can copy this module.
Thanks
