"Control audio via OBS" on Browser source and audio monitoring issue
Bear with me.
1. I have TTS alerts set up with Tangia. It's a browser source in OBS. If I don't tick the box that says "control audio via OBS" then the audio just plays to my "Wave Link - System" audio output. However, that's also where my Game audio comes through my capture card, and I have the OBS mixer set to -13db so my game audio is properly balanced and not too loud. That's great for my game audio, but it's too quiet for the Tangia alerts.
2. So I figured I should go ahead and tick the box that says "control audio via OBS." That way I get a dedicated mixer for Tangia and I can leave the volume slider at 0db.
3. I can adjust the volume of the TTS alerts on Tangia's website, and I balanced the audio so that it comes in around -15db, which feels good for these alerts. If I send a test alert via Tangia's website, the Tangia audio mixer in OBS reads -15db, but my "Wave Link - System" audio still shows activity around -25db.
Here's where I get confused.
4. If I hit record in OBS and then watch the recording in MPC, the output volume will NOT be -15db. It will either be -20db if I set Tangia's audio to "Monitor Only" (slightly more quiet) -- OR it will be -2db if I set Tangia's audio to "Monitor and Output" (way too loud). (And yes, I have MPC's volume set to 100%).
Why is it not -15db? I believe every other audio source plays back at the level I see in OBS whenever I watch a recording.

Encoder overload
Log from last night's stream: https://obsproject.com/logs/I3zpzG6ynOQJrPUl
Experienced occasional overload throughout the whole stream, but nothing too bad. Until I went to my "Stream Ending" scene, and things got really choppy.
It honestly might just be due to my scenes being quite complex.
Looking for any advice on how to mitigate these issues.

OBS crashing when using ffmpeg ALAC
Had a weird issue tonight where OBS kept crashing when trying to stream to YT. I couldn't figure out what was causing it, and then I noticed the log mentioned ffmpeg. I realized that I recently changed my audio encoder from ffmpeg PCM 32-bit float to ffmpeg ALAC. So I changed it back to PCM and that fixed the problem.
Any idea why ALAC would be crashing my OBS?
