I am trying to combine the audio from my microphone

from Rhythmbox Music Player running on Ubuntu 16.04 and pipe that as
the audio input to video conference services such as Jitsi.
I don't know much about Linux audio internals and wasn't sure how to
do this. Can I do this completely via the operating system using
Pulse Audio? Do I need to do something with Jack? Or do I need
specialized software such as OBS, Ardour or Reaper?
OBS is probably the easiest way. You can add your local video if needed as
well. OBS will work fine with just pulse or jack. I don't know much about
jitsi it self but if it uses pulse as the default device there should be
no problem.
