Unable to use Mackie sub with DDJ-SX

My apologies ahead if this is being posted in the wrong section.

I have an 1801 Mackie sub.  It runs fine if I go RCA coming out of the DDJ-SX (Master outs) going into the sub XLR, HOWEVER; I use the console a lot to broadcast online, so I am having to run a cable from the RCA outs on the DDJ-SX to an 1/8 inch jack into the input on the laptop in order to broadcast sound.

With this being said, because Im running RCA to the laptop, I cannot run RCA to the 1801 Mackie sub.  Is there another way I can make the sub work being that Im already using the RCA outs on the console?

Why can't you use the XLR outputs on the SX?

If you really want to use the RCA you can just use an RCA splitter

Pulse

Or run the booth output to the sub and control the volume of the sub separately that way.
