If you route only the VoIP software then your stream viewers will be unable to hear you if the call drops or is ended. If you route your mic audio separately your voice will have an echo for streaming the VoIP software too.

Audio Hijack Pro will capture both of these by default. This is for your mic audio (outgoing) and other people's audio (incoming). By default, VoIP applications like Skype have incoming and outgoing audio streams. Want a Skype or Mumble call in your stream too? Auxiliary Device Output works for this as well, but there is an extra step. Pressing ⌘R will start the hijack and record to a file (use the Recording tab to configure settings), and pressing it again will end the recording without stopping the hijack. You then "hijack" it by selecting it and pressing ⌘G or clicking Hijack on the top left of the window. To actually capture the audio, make sure your application is running or device is connected. This will also affect the playback volume for you. To control the volume for Soundflower, use the In/Out knobs on the Auxiliary Device Output effect.You can also click Mute on the top left of the window and it will only mute that audio source for you, without muting it for Soundflower. To control the volume for yourself only, use the Gain slider on the left side or your volume keys.When you hijack your audio source, you will not only be able to hear it while routing to Soundflower, you can control the volume you hear and Soundflower's volume independently of each other. Click Editor and set the device to Soundflower (2ch). Click a square and go to 4FX Effect -> Auxiliary Device Output. Leave the output device as Default System Output and click the Effects tab. However, routing it in this manner will prevent you from hearing that audio and having volume control over it, so we'll be using another method. You can route your audio to Soundflower easily by just choosing it as your output device. If you've used LineIn these options should look familiar.
On the Input tab select your source type (Application, Audio Device, etc.), then choose your input from the dropdown on the right. To capture an audio source go to Session -> New (⌘N) or click the + symbol on the bottom left. Not exactly convenient for long stream sessions, but perfect for short recordings. This can be reset simply by stopping the hijack and restarting it.

The free version is also fully functional, with the only caveat being that it distorts audio after 10 minutes. It costs $32, but the level of control and power you have with it is unmatched. Changing Soundflower's volume will affect them both, so it may be hard to find an acceptable balance between multiple sources. Unfortunately this method does not let you control the volume for them separately. LineIn.app/Contents/MacOS/LineIn (note the period at the start of this command, this is important.) Just change to the directory where LineIn is located and then open it through Terminal. What if you want a second one, such as a mic to go along with game audio? You can run a second instance of LineIn by using Terminal.
You might notice that this method only works with one audio source. Change back to your default output speakers and changing the volume will not affect Soundflower's volume. Because this device is not your normal speakers you will not hear the change in audio, but Soundflower is indeed being affected. To control the volume of Soundflower, hold the Option key and click the speaker icon on the menu bar, then select Soundflower. If your audio is being captured correctly, you should see the volume displayed visually in the meters. To route your audio simply select your source device from the top right dropdown menu, select Soundflower (2ch) from the menu below it, then click Play Thru. This also lets you capture specific audio sources without capturing all desktop audio. In this manner you can have any number of audio sources routed through Soundflower and into your stream.
The basic idea is to take audio from one source and send it somewhere else.

If you want to stream audio, the first order of business is to download Soundflower, which is an audio routing utility. Firstly, if you only want to record audio then you can do so with just Audio Hijack Pro, WavTap (supposedly conflicts with other audio software/devices), or your capture device's software.
