I recently purchased some Anker bluetooth earbuds for the first time.
I'm having a very strange issue when using them with my Macbook Pro 2016 model (Running Mojave 10.14.4, 2.7 GHz Intel, 16gb Ram, Radeon Pro 455).
Basically, if I watch a video on Youtube or a stream on Twitch, the video playback will pause for around 3 seconds, but the audio will start right away. This means the video is always out of sync (behind) by about 3 seconds from the audio.
When I play music on a site like Soundcloud, or using an app like Spotify, there is no delay. When I hit play, the music starts right away. It's just video playback that is paused for some reason for a few seconds before it starts. So strange!
I already downloaded Bluetooth Explorer, and set the codec to ACC and AptX, which did fix some stuttering/choppiness audios issues I was having, but the video syncing issue still remains.
Also, it seems to happen regardless of browser. I tried in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and even played a Youtube video from Discord, all had the exact same pause while the audio started right away.
I tried with my coworker's Macbook as well, and had the exact same issue. It could be the earbuds, but has anyone else experienced anything like this before?
Thanks!
