Micro/Aux is always visible on the Audio Mixer

Hi!
I want to use 2 Micros and a separate WebCam with OBS zu stream a church service.
I added the WebCam to a scene, and also the USB micro. The second micro is attached to the Micro/Aux adapter of my Laptop. But even if I didn't add the Mic/Aux to the scene I can see the input in the Audio-Mixer.

Now I have an empty scene with a picture "Stay tuned..." and nothing else. And again the Micro/Aux is always active on the Audio Mixer side. I can see the USB micro only in the scenes where I added it. So I got no input from it on the "Stay tuned..." scene.

Why? Even if add a new source with the Micro/Aux device, I can't control it like the camera or the USB micro. Camera and USB micro are only visible when added to a scene.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance
Martin

PS: Using the latest OBS version.

Ahhh. Strange. Must have something to do with my scene collection.
I added a fresh new one and now it looks OK and works like expected.
Now my question is, how to fix my scene collection?

PS: I am a German, I don't know if I use the appropriate english terms.

And again. Also the new Scene settings is "defect" all Audio Devices are shown in all scenes with an output.
I can't control the output by adding a device to a scene. All scene contain all Audio devices.

And tomorow morning we have a life session... oh no,

Welcome friend I am also a new Church AV tech finding my way.
1) Your English is better than my German like 99% better
2) If you have a normal audio mixer you could mix the microphones on that and send it to the laptop.
3) In settings there is a way to add microphones to OBS but I found it better to add each source per scene. It can get tedious but you can duplicate scenes. This will give you volume sliders for each microphone and if you go into filters you can add EQ and Compression if you want to get fancy.
4) I'm assuming you still have the default layout and still have a "audio mixer" dock item that shows volume control and level.

Sporry for the noise.
It was all my fault..

I just missed the situation that I switched to "Studio" mode. So I always selected something, but i didn't took the scene into the live stage...
Oh my God! I am so stupid.

I am so sorry!
