Bug Description

In Ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS when I play a video in youtube in my Firefox browser (Snap package), I can watch the image of the video since second 0 with no problem, but the sound of the video comes 4-5 seconds later. It occurs usually with the first video that you open when you open the browser, but can happen later.

This happen too when I play a video in VLC, the image of the video comes instantly buy the sound comes several seconds later.

Please fix it, in the past it worked well, but it is happening since few weeks.
