I'm currently using an Avermedia C985 Live Gamer HD capture card in my 2nd streaming PC. For the most part, the multiplatform OBS has been working great for my casts.
The main problem I've run into, however, is that on occasion it will not actually pick up audio. From my main PC I use an Nvidia GTX 970 to play my games, which is split via HDM into both my monitor and to the capture card to get picked up for the streaming PC. To get the audio over, I use Virtual Audio Cable to split a Line 1 source to my headset and to the NVIDIA audio output, which does the job.
However, on some occasions(not all the time but often enough that I felt it necessary to say here), it will be reporting in OBS that it is receiving audio while, in reality, it isn't getting anything. The peaks for the "Game" source(which is the capture card's source) will be showing peaks of the audio from the game and teamspeak chats I'm in on my gaming PC, but people in the stream will be hearing nothing from the game. When I check the recording after casts, I can't hear the game in the recordings either. It's telling me that it's picking it up when it isn't.
I included my DxDiag for my streaming PC along with the log file for the most recent cast where this issue occured(earlier today). I would add the log file, but it's 1.9 gigabytes... yea.
