I've noticed four separate times while watching Netflix on my new Apple TV 3 that the audio will get about a second or two out of sync with the video. Stopping and restarting (hitting menu and then going back into it and resuming) fixes it. This hasn't ever happened on any of my other devices. Is this common to Apple TVs? This is my first one. It's really kind of annoying.

I had that issue yesterday. It might be a netflix problem. You are correct, stopping the video and playing it again does seem to fix the syncing problem. I played a tv show from iTunes and it worked just fine.
 
I wouldn't say that it is normal for the TV. Perhaps it's a new issue. I've never seen that problem, but I haven't watched much Netflix this last week.
