    Stereo mix not picking up any sound

    After clearing two google pages of forum posts it has became clear to me that this is a very common problem, but the common fixes aren't working for me.

    I want to use stereo mix to output my sound to two different headsets simultaneously, by using "listen to device" on stereo mix, with it outputting stereo mix to the second headset. This is beside the point however as stereo mix is quite simply not picking
    up any sound.

    I have:

    -updated realtek audio drivers

    -set the correct device as default (it already was)

    -gone into realtek driver settings and changed the playback settings

    -cried

    Below are screenshots of my sound control panel.

    Playback (disconnected & disabled hidden)

    My headset is quite unique in that it has two separate audio devices, one for communication apps and the other for everything else - but I'm not interested in stereo mix picking up the chat. The problem is Stereo Mix is just not picking up any sound whatsoever,
    the green volume bar never shows there being any sound.

    STEREO MIX NOT PICKING UP SOUND

    Stereo Mix not picking up sound

    I've been trying to get stereo mix working on my windows 10 computer and it exists in the panel but it wont pick up any sound. I tried enabling and disabling other devices, adjusting levels, unplugging and plugging in headphones, cameras, microphones ext. (as advised by someone on YouTube who managed to solve the problem for lots of people). I did the whole "Set as default device" and checked "Listen to this device" and stuff and it still doesn't work. Please help. Thanks.
