Question / Help Streaming Live to Facebook with Headset

[Leanne]

Hello,
Trying to stream live to Facebook but the problem is the sound is coming back in through my headsets after I speak, so I can hear myself, I don't know if the live video is hearing me twice, but it makes it about impossible to speak as I keep hearing myself back, and of course if it's recording the sound over itself than that doesn't work.

I'm just unsure what settings to edit.

The big problem is that Facebook offers no video player controls. And your browser will output its sound to your headset if its your default playback device.

If the software or input you want to stream can use a different audio device, this device could be recorded by OBS instead of the default playback device. Then OBS would not pick up the browser sound, but only your input (microphone, webcam, and any application you can set to output its audio to that second audio device).

But generally I really hope that Facebook will add a simple option to mute the preview in the future.
