I've been wracking my brain about this for 3 months

I'm honestly losing my mind with this setup and hoping someone has seen this before.

My setup is:

  • PS4
  • Astro A40 headset
  • Elgato Chat Link Pro
  • Generic 4K HDMI capture card
  • OBS

The issue is that if I set my PS4's "Output to Headphones" to Chat Audio, OBS gets game audio just fine.

But if I set it to All Audio, I can hear everything perfectly through my headset, but OBS gets absolutely nothing. No game audio, no mic audio.

Here's what's driving me crazy:

  • The capture card video works fine.
  • The headset works fine.
  • I replaced my old Amazon Chat Link cable with a brand new Chat Link Pro.
  • Same exact problem.
  • This setup worked a few months ago.

I've spent days troubleshooting this and I'm honestly out of ideas.

Has anyone run into a situation where Chat Audio works, but All Audio completely kills the audio going to OBS?

At this point I'm trying to figure out if it's:

  • the PS4 controller jack,
  • the capture card's audio input,
  • a PS4 setting,
  • or something else I'm not even thinking of.

Any ideas would be appreciated.
