# Microphone Becomes Unresponsive Using OBS

ISSUE:

When using OBS the microphone may become unresponsive as the browser window is forced into the background

SOLUTION:

1. Running ZipCaptions as a Progressive Web App (PWA) will see the page running in its own browser instance. This will stop the microphone from sleeping.
2. Adding <https://zipcaptions.app> to the [chrome://settings/performance page](chrome://settings/performance%20page) will prevent Chrome from putting the tab to sleep when you move away from it.
