I am experiencing an audio delay of 2-3 seconds when configuring 2 of my macOS systems to send audio to the Sonos One as a system audio output device over the AirPlay protocol.
My iPhone is able to send audio to the Sonos One over what also appears to be the AirPlay protocol with no lag.
Repro Steps on macOS (Catalina 10.15.4 and Mojave 10.14.6):
- Open System Preferences.
- Open Sound.
- Select the Output tab.
- Click the name of the Sonos One device (where device type says AirPlay).
- Do one of the following:
- Play a video in any browser, such as from YouTube.
- Play a video using VLC.
- Play a video using QuickTime Player.
- In all of the above playback scenarios, it takes 2-3 seconds for the Sonos One to start playing the audio associated with the video, and that audio it plays lags behind the video by a similar number of seconds.
How can I eliminate the audio delay to the Sonos One when playing from a computer?
