On one of my frontends (bedroom), I sometimes get the audio sync
problem. On this computer, I'm using analog audio (just a pair of
computer speakers plugged into the computer). On my living room
computer hooked up to my A/V receiver via HDMI, I get no sync problems
whatsoever. I don't know if analog vs digital audio output has anything
to do with it.
