Windows 10: System audio playing through Discord

Hi,I've been scouring the internet for answers, but they either did not exist or they did not work for me.

System audio playing through Discord

Hi,

I've been scouring the internet for answers, but they either did not exist or they did not work for me. I have seen this issue been asked and a Microsoft employee responded with turning off "listen to this device" in the microphone's settings. These blocks have never been checked for me, and nothing in my discord settings is using my system's settings. I have Sound mixer off, device listen off, I've disabled every input except my current microphone and headset, and I've quadruple checked that the correct input is being used. When I test my microphone on windows AND discord, I can hear a show playing on my desktop.

I'm really at a loss on how to fix this, It overrides muting my microphone and everything. Any help would be appreciated.
