Expected Behavior
When changing a scene, the source transition should be completed no matter if the new scene contains the source or not.
Current Behavior
When triggering a Source's visibility transition by toggling the source's visibility and switching to a scene where the source doesn't exist, the transition fails to completely turn off the source. The output of it will be turned off, but monitoring capabilities of the audio source aren't will prevail with the status before toggling the source visibility
Please find a video explanation attached;
.
Steps to Reproduce
- Add an audio source.
- Give the audio source a show/hide transition, in this case Fade in 2000ms and Fade out 3000ms.
- Hide the source and immediately show it.
- Switch to a scene missing the audio source right after toggling visibility ON.
- Hear the monitoring of the source while the output can't.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in OBS Studio 27.2.4 on Windows using the listed audio-source visibility and scene-switching steps, then trace the source transition and audio monitoring behavior. Done means switching to a scene without the source fully stops both its output and monitoring, including during show/hide transitions.
