I spent the better part of the day trying to figure out why the Final Cut Pro audio was out of sync. The audio would be delayed by 3 seconds in playback. I thought it was some setting in Final Cut Pro that broke, but eventually came to the conclusion that it was the OS and not Final Cut Pro that was causing the audio delay. The specific cause was the VoodooHDA driver, even though it worked perfect in ordinary applications such as iTunes and Safari it had a delay issue with Final Cut Pro. The Fix? Install SoundFlowerBed and configure your audio output settings in it. This somehow magically fixes the delay issue in the VoodooHDA driver. I thought I should post it here for “internet” record keeping.
