Bug Report OBS Constantly Crashing

[Killer Tofu]

**Posting to correct area**

I suspect this has something to do with the new update, as last weekend was just fine and dandy, but today, after I installed the new update, not so much. It started out with OBS dropping frames like there was no tomorrow while I was (trying) to stream, but now it just wont stop crashing! I did a completely clean install of OBS, removing my Scenes and Plugins completely, but it did nothing, apparently. For some reason, when it crashes, it also completely mutes me in Skype, to the point that I need to hang up and not call again until OBS is done crashing, or else I'm still muted.This is incredibly frustrating. Ideas?

Any takers? Still having the issue.

Oddly enough, when I decided to test it today, it SEEMED perfectly fine. I recorded 10 mins through, no issue at all. Thought it was just a glitch. But when I tried to stream with friends, it decides to shit the bed again. I moved on to Skype being the culprit, but I've completely shut it down and my OBS is still freezing 30-60 seconds in...

Talking to myself at this point, but it seems that whenever I change my Desktop Audio Device to my headset, labeled 'Headset Earphone (ASTRO MixAmp Pro), it causes the freezing. The other Audio Device I can select is 'Default', and that causes freezing too. I can select Realtek Digital Output (Optical) (Realtek High Definition Audio), but unfortunately the Skype call isn't picked up in the recording/stream. Gonna try Xsplit and see if it's an OBS issue or something else completely...
