It gradually catches up but takes a second or two, particularly if doing multiple skips. It even lags when I quit out of a recording: video stops, sound continues for a second, then I get the MythTV menu. This is with a digital audio connection to a receiver, by the way, via an external USB adapter.

I had a similar problem i tracked it down to pulseaudio...I removed 
pulseaudio and the problem went away...YMMV :)
  I also think slim is the most common profile profile that is 
suggested...Try that out...
