since 10.6.8, ive noticed that there is a slight delay in playing any audio.

for example, watching streaming video. you hit play, the video will start, but the audio isnt on. a second later, the video will freeze and the audio will kick in. the audio and video are in sync, its just the initial start for a second or so where the issue is.

its like an audio controller or something is slow to initialise, but once its working, it works fine. if you pause a video for a minute, the issue crops up again, like the audio controller has gone to sleep temporarily.

im using voodoohda 2.7.2, and have just deleted applehda.kext to see if it improves anything but it doesnt.

its not a major issue, but it is slightly annoying seeing as how i didnt have this pre-10.6.8.
 
I have the same problem, its really annoying, I upgraded to Lion and I thought that might fix it, but it doesn't. Any solutions so far mate?
 
i did a clean lion install, used voodoohda 2.7.1, and the audio is fine now.

i tried soundflower, and didnt like it.
