---------------------

.. function:: bool obs_reset_audio(const struct obs_audio_info *oai)

   Sets base audio output format/channels/samples/etc.

   Note: Cannot reset base audio if an output is currently active.

   :return: *true* if successful, *false* otherwise

   Relevant data types used with this function:

.. code:: cpp

   struct obs_audio_info {
