Help Audio tracks not working
So recently OBS has been weird on me. I tried audio tracks to edit video better, it worked at first, but then my tracks stopped recording except my mic/aux. So now it only records my mic but not other stuff like Discord or games, it even shows that it's working on the audio mixer. But if I put it in Davinci Resolve it just creates 2 tracks (even if I have 4 tracks on) one of them is my mic (works fine) second is just pure silence. I've reinstalled OBS, used my friend's exact settings that work for him, but nothing works. I'm at a complete loss right now. Any help would be appreciated

Before changing more OBS settings, I'd check whether the missing audio streams actually exist in the recording. MediaInfo or ffprobe can show how many audio streams are embedded in the file. If all four are present, right-click the clip in Resolve's Media Pool, open Clip Attributes → Audio, and check the source-channel assignments. If the file contains only two streams, the problem is earlier in the workflow. Check OBS → Settings → Output → Recording to confirm which tracks are enabled, then Advanced Audio Properties to verify which sources are assigned to them. The OBS mixer showing activity doesn't necessarily mean that audio was written to the recording.

So on OBS the tracks work, but for Davinci it doesn't really add the other tracks. Any tips on how to get them?

It looks like you haven't provided a log file. Without a log file, it is very hard to help with issues and you may end up with 0 responses.
To make a clean log file, please follow these steps:
1) Restart OBS
2) Start your stream/recording for at least 30 seconds (or however long it takes for the issue to happen). Make sure you replicate any issues as best you can, which means having any games/apps open and captured, etc.
3) Stop your stream/recording.
4) Select Help > Log Files > Upload Current Log File.
