export audio sink thru USB

I'm a streamer. I use OBS on ma linux machine with capture card connected to my windows machine.
I know that there are many possibilities to connect sound (thru jack between 2 sound cards, or ethernet, or even external sound devices like GO XLR).
But I was thinking if there is a way to connect 2 PCs with USB cabel and export audio sinks. It should work like USB audio card on windows, but configured by the Linux.
So I will be able to:
- connect mic on my Linux, then send it to Windows
- create multiply sinks that will be visible on Windows as sound device/card
- change volume on linux
- change routing on linux (so 1 sink will be send to OBS and headphones, other only to headphones, etc.)

Is there a possibility to do that on Linux?

Re: export audio sink thru USB

The only way I can see that might work is to use an application that can accept pulseaudio / pipewire sinks as input and route them to usb audio outputs  so they can be transported over usb-c . It would be a very advanced mixing device .

You need advise from users of professsional audio software/hardware. No idea if some of them use archlinux forums.
