My M1 Mac mini is connected to the HomePod mini via Airplay. When I clicked on the play button on a YouTube video on Safari, the video will start playing but no audio will come from the HomePod mini until 1-2 seconds later. As a result, the audio and video will be out of sync.
Anyone has experienced this? Is there any solution to fix this?
Thanks.
Mac mini 2018 or later
Lag is inherent in AirPlay. The TV app will delay video output to align, but YouTube in the browser doesn't do this. Here is a Chrome extension that claims to give you control but I've not personally tested it: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/youtube-audiovideo-sync/mknmhikmjljhpccebpnplhicmcfjkgbk

That's a good workaround. Thanks.
I use Safari and I do hope there is a similar solution on Safari soon.
